Angivas MR Tablet 35 mg contains Trimetazidine Dihydrochloride, a metabolic agent used to manage angina pectoris (chest pain) and improve heart function. Unlike conventional anti-anginal drugs that primarily affect blood pressure or heart rate, Trimetazidine works at the cellular level by optimizing energy metabolism in cardiac cells. This helps the heart muscle produce energy more efficiently during reduced oxygen supply, which can occur in conditions like chronic stable angina.
The modified-release (MR) formulation ensures a sustained release of the active ingredient, providing consistent therapeutic effects throughout the day and improving patient adherence. Angivas MR helps reduce the frequency and severity of angina attacks and enhances exercise tolerance without significantly affecting heart rate or blood pressure.

Key Benefits
-
Reduces frequency and severity of angina attacks
-
Improves exercise tolerance and cardiac efficiency
-
Works at the cellular level to optimize heart energy metabolism
-
Modified-release formulation for consistent 24-hour effect
-
Well-tolerated with minimal impact on blood pressure and heart rate
Indications
Angivas MR Tablet is indicated for:
-
Chronic stable angina pectoris
-
Prevention of angina attacks in patients with coronary artery disease
-
Improvement of functional capacity in patients with ischemic heart disease
Mechanism of Action
Trimetazidine acts by selectively inhibiting fatty acid oxidation in cardiac cells, promoting glucose oxidation instead. This shift improves the efficiency of ATP (energy) production in heart muscle cells, especially during ischemic conditions, reducing cellular stress and improving myocardial performance.
