Measure
Ranolazine and Patients Having CABG Surgery
500 mg tab, 2 pills twice a day. If intolerant to the study drug due to adverse effects,or the patient is started on diltiazem or verapamil post operative then the dose will be reduced to 500 mg, 1 pill twice daily. Atrial fibrillation : Once patient is in atrial fibrillation, the study drug is still continued. Patients will also be treated with standard drug therapy that their doctor chooses
Sugar Pill and Patients Having CABG Surgery
2 pills twice a day. If intolerant to the study drug due to adverse effects, or the patient is started on diltiazem or verapamil post operative then the dose will be reduced to 1 pill twice daily. Atrial fibrillation : Once the patient goes into atrial fibrillation, the study drug is still continued. Patient will also be treated with standard drug therapy that their doctor chooses
Ranolazine With Patients Having Non CABG Heart Surgery
500 mg tab, 2 pills twice a day. If intolerant to the study drug due to adverse effects,or the patient is started on diltiazem or verapamil post operative then the dose will be reduced to 500 mg, 1 pill twice daily. Atrial fibrillation : Once patient is in atrial fibrillation, the study drug is still continued. Patients will also be treated with standard drug therapy that their doctor chooses
Sugar Pills and Patients Having Non CABG Heart Surgery
2 pills twice a day. If intolerant to the study drug due to adverse effects, or the patient is started on diltiazem or verapamil post operative then the dose will be reduced to 1 pill twice daily.
