Uses of Sivab Tablets 7.5mg

Sivab Tablets 7.5mg is used to treat long-term (chronic) heart failure in adults whose heart rate stays high despite other treatment, such as beta-blockers. It is also used for stable angina, the chest pain that comes on with exertion, in people who cannot take beta-blockers or need extra help controlling their heart rate. A slower heart rate gives the heart more time to fill and less work to do.

How Sivab Tablets 7.5mg works

Ivabradine acts on the sinus node, the heart’s natural pacemaker, blocking the electrical current that sets how often it fires. This slows the heart rate without weakening the force of each beat or lowering blood pressure, so the heart uses less oxygen and pumps more efficiently.
