This invention provides a use of 2-(3,4-dimethoxycinnamoyl) aminobenzoic acid as a therapeutic agent for treating patients to inhibit restenosis associated with coronary intervention, which comprises administering to a patient Tranilast or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in a dose which is effective for maintaining the plasma concentration of Tranilast at about 100 mu molar concentration, for a treatment period which prevents excessive proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells after coronary intervention, such as a period of less than 3 months after coronary intervention. The dosage and a term of administration in an actual treatment depend on factors such as the weight, age and sex of the patient, the severity of the condition to be treated, the constitution of the patient as effecting the rate and speed of absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion of drug of the patient, and the like. |
