9 Ranolazine New data presented this week has shown that the novel antianginal agent ranolazine (Ranexa), an inhibitor of the late phase of the sodium current, is safe, with investigators finding no evidence of an excess risk of arrhythmia or sudden cardiac death, according to an analysis of the MERLIN TIMI 36 study. Ranolazine actually resulted in significant decreases in many types of arrhythmias--in particular, ventricular tachycardia. 9
