Ranolazine is commonly used in the treatment of angina heart related chest pain.
Ranolazine inhibits the late Na current and other cardiac ion channels and transporters. It reduces the magnitude of the late Na current resulting in reduction intracellular Na concentrations, reversal of Ca overload, restoration of ventricular pump function, and prevention of ischemia-induced arrhythmias.
