Ranolazine brands?

See the DrugPatentWatch profile for Ranolazine

What brand names does ranolazine come in?

Ranolazine is sold under different brand names depending on the country. In the United States, the best-known brand name is Ranexa. [1]

How does the brand name relate to the generic drug?

Brand names like Ranexa contain the same active ingredient, ranolazine, as generic versions approved as “ranolazine.” The dosing strength and tablet type may differ by manufacturer, but the drug is the same. [1]

Are there other ranolazine brands outside the US?

Ranolazine is marketed under various brand names worldwide, but the specific names differ by country and regulator. If you tell me your country (or what you see on the package/bottle), I can help match it to the ranolazine brand there.

What is ranolazine used for (so you can confirm it matches)?

Ranolazine is used for chronic angina (to help reduce chest pain episodes) in certain patients. Checking the indication on the label can help confirm the medication is ranolazine, not a different heart medicine with a similar purpose. [1]
