Product Description

Ivabid 5 Tablet contains Ivabradine (5mg) as its active ingredient. It is mainly prescribed for patients suffering from chronic heart failure or stable angina (chest pain) when the heart rate is high despite treatment with other medicines. Ivabradine works by slowing down the heart rate, allowing the heart to pump blood more efficiently and with less strain. This helps reduce symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, and fatigue. It should be used only under the supervision of a healthcare professional.
