This medicine is not for use during an acute (emergency) attack of angina.
Dosage and direction
Take Ranexa exactly as prescribed by your doctor. You may take Ranexa tablets with or without food. Swallow the tablet whole and do not crush, chew, or break it. Chronic angina is often treated with a combination of drugs. Do not change your dose or dosing schedule without your doctor's advice.
Usual Adult Dose for Angina Pectoris: 500 mg orally twice a day; increase to 1000 mg orally twice a day as needed. Maximum dose: 1000 mg orally twice a day.
