Ranolazine for Angina "Before Ranexa I could not go a day without needing a nitro for the chest pain. Now if I need 1 nitro a month, that is a lot. BUT the side effects are terrible. The bloated feeling and stomach aches are terrible, and the constipation has been so bad I need to use MiraLax daily along with a stool softener in the morning and evening. Do not know if I can tolerate the GI problems much longer."

Ranolazine for Angina "After some scary bouts of angina, the Dr. put me on Ranexa. I am really impressed by what I can achieve at age 74 minus the chest pains. I was pleasantly surprised when my A1c dropped significantly. I have had some problems that I am not sure if they are side effects. Serious swelling of my feet and ankles, an increase in neuropathic pain in my feet and toes, and wrists Weight gain that I can't explain, and bloating of the abdomen. I will contact the cardiologist to see if the dosage can be less than 500 mg twice a day."

For Angina "This helped with breathing and pain from angina, but the side effects to the digestive system greatly outweighed this. I experienced severe constipation, bloating, and acid reflux when taking the 350 dose. This became so severe over a 2-week period that I had to stop taking the medication."
