Does Angibert 6.4 Tablet CR stop heart attacks?
Angibert 6.4 Tablet CR is prescribed to prevent angina attacks, which are chest pain caused by a restricted blood flow to the heart in patients with coronary artery disease.

Angibert 6.4 Tablet CR prevents angina by relaxing the narrowed arteries, allowing the heart to receive enough oxygen.
