Date of revision WHAT AXI-NOVELL 35MG MR TABLET IS USED FOR OTHER CARDIAC PREPARATIONS - ATC code: C01EB15 This medicine is intended for use in adult patients, in combination with other medicines to treat angina pectoris (chest pain caused by coronary disease). HOW AXI-NOVELL 35MG MR TABLET WORKS Trimetazidine acts by inhibiting the breakdown of fatty acids which enhances glucose oxidation. Energy obtained during glucose oxidation requires less oxygen consumption thus optimises the heart’s energy producing function, protecting vulnerable heart muscle tissue from further oxygen-deprived damage. BEFORE YOU USE AXI-NOVELL 35MG MR TABLET - _When you must not use it _ Do not take AXI-NOVELL 35mg MR Tablet : • if you are allergic to trimetazidine or any of the other ingredients of this medicine • if you have a Parkinson disease: disease of the brain affecting movement (trembling, rigid posture, slow movements and a shuffling, unbalanced walk), • if you have severe kidney problems - _Before you start to use it _ Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking AXI-NOVELL 35mg MR Tablet. This medicinal product is not a curative treatment for angina attacks, nor an initial treatment for unstable angina. It is not a treatment for myocardial infarction.

This medicine can cause or worsen symptoms such as trembling, rigid posture, slow movements and a shuffling, unbalanced walk, especially in elderly patients, which should Baca dokumen lengkap
AXI-NOVELL 35mg MR Tablet TRIMETAZIDINE DIHYDROCHLORIDE Modified Release Film-Coated Tablet COMPOSITION Each modified release film-coated tablet contains Trimetazidine Dihydrochloride 35 mg. MODE OF ACTION OF THE DRUG By preserving energy metabolism in cells exposed to hypoxia or ischaemia, trimetazidine prevents a decrease in intracellular ATP levels , thereby ensuring the proper functioning of ionic pumps and transmembrane sodium-potassium flow whilst maintaining cellular homeostasis. Trimetazidine inhibits ß-oxidation of fatty acids by blocking long-chain 3-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase, which enhances glucose oxidation. In an ischaemic cell, energy obtained during glucose oxidation requires less oxygen consumption than in the ß-oxidation process. Potentiation of glucose oxidation optimizes cellular energy processes, thereby maintaining proper energy metabolism during ischaemia. Pharmacodynamic effects In patients with ischaemic heart disease, trimetazidine acts as a metabolic agent, preserving the myocardial high-energy phosphate intracellular levels. Anti-ischemic effects are achieved without concomitant haemodynamic effects. Pharmacokinetic properties • After oral administration, maximum concentration is found, on average, 5 hours after taking the tablet. Over 24 hours the plasma concentration remains at levels above or equal to 75% of the maximum concentration for 11 hours. Steady state is reached by the 60th hour, at the latest. • The pharmacokinetic characteristics of AXI-NOVELL are not influenced by meals. • The apparent distribution volume is 4.8 l/kg; protein binding is low: in vitro measurements give value of 16%. • Trimetazidine is eliminated primarily in the urine, mainly in the unchanged form. INDICATION Trimetazidine is indicated in adults as add-on therapy for the symptomatic treatment of patients with stable angina pectoris who are inadequately controlled by or intolerant to first-line antianginal therapies. POSOLOGY One tablet in the morning and evening, to be taken at meal times. WARNING & Baca dokumen lengkap
