Product Description

Cytogard MR Tablet contains Trimetazidine (35mg), a medication that helps in managing angina pectoris, a condition caused by reduced blood flow to the heart muscles. It works by optimizing the energy processes in the heart cells, allowing them to function efficiently even in low oxygen conditions. This medicine does not directly dilate blood vessels or alter blood pressure but helps the heart to use oxygen more effectively.

It is generally prescribed for long-term management of stable angina, often alongside other medicines like beta-blockers or calcium channel blockers. Cytogard MR Tablet is not intended for treating sudden chest pain but for preventing its occurrence.
