Angina -- Stable (Cardiovascular)

Also known as angina of effort, this angina is caused when the demands of the heart increase (due to exercise or some other event) and the oxygen supply is unable to increase with it. The underlying cause is a narrowing of the blood vessels due to atherosclerosis.
Therapy. Beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, and organonitrates can be used. Beta-blockers are generally used to control the patient's blood pressure, with the organonitrates being used to alleviate specific attacks. Combined therapy with calcium channel blockers, or calcium channel blocker therapy by itself might be used depending on the indications and contraindications a given patient presents with and how they respond to therapy.
