How it Works?

Ranonux 500 Tablet contains ranolazine (500 mg), which functions as follows:

• Sodium Current Inhibition: Ranolazine inhibits the late phase of the inward sodium current in cardiac myocytes, reducing intracellular sodium accumulation.

• Calcium Overload Prevention: By limiting sodium entry, it indirectly reduces calcium influx in the heart muscle cells, thus preventing calcium overload.

• Cardiac Efficiency: This modulation of sodium and calcium levels enhances the efficiency of cardiac muscle function during episodes of insufficient oxygen supply.
