Product Description

Procoralan contains 5 mg of Ivabradine, which is used for the symptomatic treatment of chronic stable angina pectoris (chest, jaw, and back pain brought on by physical effort) in adults with coronary artery disease (heart disease caused by the obstruction of blood vessels that supply blood to the heart muscle). It is used in patients who cannot be treated with beta blockers (another type of medicine to treat angina) or in combination with beta blockers in patients whose disease is not controlled with them alone and whose heart rate is at least 70 beats per minute. Procoralan is also used in patients with long-term heart failure (when the heart cannot pump enough blood to the rest of the body). The symptoms of heart failure are caused by the heart not pumping enough blood around the body. By lowering the heart rate, Procoralan reduces the stress on the heart, thereby slowing the progression of heart failure and improving symptoms.
