Carvidon MR Tablet

Cardivon MR tab contains Trimetazidine which belongs to the group of medicines called Anti-anginal agents. It is used in adult patients for the management of angina pectoris (chest pain caused by a heart disease) along with other medicines. It protects the heart cells from the effects of a reduced oxygen supply during an episode of angina. Angina is a type of chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart. It is a symptom of an underlying coronary heart disease (narrowing or blockage of blood vessels that carry blood and oxygen to heart). It is characterized by sudden, sharp, and severe pain, pressure, or discomfort in chest radiating to the left shoulder. The discomfort can also be felt in jaw, neck, back, or abdomen. Some people may also suffer from shortness of breath or fatigue.

This medicine should be used cautiously in elderly patients (above 75 years), pregnant, and breast-feeding mothers.
