Terms & Conditions of Program
A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.
Procoralan tablets contain the active ingredient ivabradine, which is a type of medicine called a selective If current inhibitor. It helps to lower the heart rate.
Treatment of chronic stable angina pectoris in people with a normal heart rhythm.

What is Corlanor used for?
Corlanor helps treat heart failure in kids aged 6 months and up with a specific heart condition, slowing their fast heart rate.
Why is Corlanor so expensive?

Is Corlanor a beta blocker?

How does Corlanor help POTS?
Corlanor isn't made specifically for POTS, but it can help because it slows down the heart rate, which might ease POTS symptoms. Best to chat with your doc for advice tailored to you.

What drugs should not be taken with Ivabradine?

Does ivabradine affect your eyes?
