Summary
This phase 2 trial tests whether a traditional Chinese herbal paste called Chaigui Longmu Ejiao Paste can reduce weekly angina attacks in people with ischemic heart disease. Sixty adults aged 18-75 who have stable angina and are on standard heart medications will take the paste or a placebo twice daily for 8 weeks. The study measures changes in angina frequency and heart-related quality of life.

What this could lead to
