4 weeks amlodipine or ranolazine, 1-week washout, cross-over to the other drug for 4 weeks

Authors' conclusion

Among phenotypically similar patients with angina with nonobstructive coronary arteries, only those with an impaired CFR derive benefit from anti-ischemic therapy.

Participants

Comparison
Response to anti-ischaemic therapy in CMD vs reference
