Angina Pectoris (Stable Angina) | American Heart Association
Angina pectoris is the medical term for chest pain or discomfort due to coronary heart disease . It occurs when the heart muscle doesn't get as much blood as it needs. This usually happens because one or more of the heart's arteries is narrowed or blocked, also called ischemia. Angina usually causes uncomfortable pressure, fullness, squeezing ...

The drug is used to reduce the effects of "Heart Failure", which very simply put is build up of water Caused By some form of Inefficiency in the circulation of the blood which filters waste (through the kidneys) and if the heart isn't pumping quite as efficient as it should the waste water actually begins to back up in the feet and legs eventually the thoracic cavity in the later most years of life... are you taking any medications beside this one? make sure you doctor (s) know very well what you take to keep interactions from happening. They used to call it Congestive Heart Failure years ago, I personally think saying Heart failure to the patient or family might be enough to push em over the edge, when they now realize its a longer drawn out process and folks can live many fruitful years being monitored and taking medication to help manage the issue

No doctor here but it sounds like coronary artery disease/arthersclerosis/buildup in the coronary arteries without any chest pain (angina pectoris)

Thank you. Last year I had 2 bypasses, my mitral valve replaced, and my tricuspid valves repaired. I saw the said diagnosis from Medicare after my last echo. My Dr.put me on a new medication, Enteresto. Is anyone on that med? I’m wondering if it’s helpful and perhaps the reason you’re taking it.
Thanks everyone. Enjoy the day.
