Rare, but serious cardiac events have been reported in patients with risk factors predictive of CAD. These include: coronary artery vasospasm, transient myocardial ischemia, myocardial infarction,ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation.
Notes: The smaller the value, the more avidly the drug binds to the site. All proteins are human unless otherwise specified.Refs:[6][7][1][8][4][9][10] [11][12][13][14][15]
