Antianginal therapy focuses on the prevention and relief of angina pectoris — chest pain caused by reduced blood flow to the heart. These medications improve oxygen delivery to cardiac tissue, reduce myocardial workload, and help maintain optimal heart function. Common drug classes include nitrates, beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, and metabolic modulators that enhance cardiac efficiency and reduce ischemic episodes.
