USE OF RANOLAZINE FOR ELEVATED BRAIN-TYPE NATRIURETIC PEPTIDE

摘要

This invention is directed to the use of ranolazine to reduce the risk of adverse coronary events in a mammalian patient. Typically, the natriuretic peptide is associated with coronary disease, acute coronary syndrome, and/or diastolic dysfunction. Ranolazine may be administered to the patient as an intravenous solution or in an oral dose.
