Rancard Xr1000mg Tablets

Rancard Xr1000mg Tablets contains Ranolazine 1000mg, an anti-anginal medicine. Made by Searle Company Limited, it is prescribed for chronic stable angina (chest pain). Pack size: 14 tablets.

Uses of Rancard Xr1000mg Tablets

Rancard Xr1000mg Tablets is used to reduce chest pain in people with chronic stable angina. It is added to other angina treatments, such as beta-blockers or calcium channel blockers, when these alone do not control symptoms well enough or cannot be used. It helps you do more before angina comes on, but it is not meant to relieve an attack that has already started.

How Rancard Xr1000mg Tablets works

Ranolazine blocks the late sodium current in heart muscle cells. When blood flow is reduced, this current leads to a build-up of sodium and calcium that makes the heart muscle stiff and oxygen-hungry. Reducing it helps the heart relax and use oxygen more efficiently, with little change to heart rate or blood pressure.

Possible side effects

Rancard Xr1000mg Tablets is generally well tolerated. The more common side effects include:

• Dizziness
• Constipation
• Nausea
• Headache
• Feeling weak or tired

Get medical help straight away for fainting, palpitations or an irregular heartbeat. Call emergency services for chest pain that does not settle with your usual angina treatment.

Precautions and warnings

• It interacts with many medicines, including clarithromycin, some antifungals, HIV medicines, rifampicin, digoxin and simvastatin, so tell your doctor about everything you take.
• Avoid grapefruit juice, which can raise its levels in the blood.
• Tell your doctor about kidney or liver disease, heart failure, or heart rhythm problems such as long QT syndrome.
