I have been taking ranexa (ranolazine) for 6 years for (then) uncontrolled angina. i haven't had angina in several years. how do i taper off ranexa (ranolazine)?

I would not: Ranexa (ranolazine) is a medication which is used for patients who have severe blockages to their heart arteries which are causing angina. Usually these patients are not candidates for surgery or stents. Ranexa (ranolazine) doesn't make the blockages go aways - it only treats the pain. The fact that you don't have pain means it is doing its job. I recommend you talk to your cardiologist before stopping it.
