    Prebil, Karla ; Kokalj, Anja, dr. med. ; Rus Prelog, Polona, psihiatrinja
    Ranolazine is a piperazine derivative and is indicated for the symptomatic treatment of patients with stable angina pectoris who are inadequately controlled or intolerant to first-line antianginal ... therapies. Visual hallucinations together with neurological symptoms have been described with ranolazine treatment. In this case report, we describe a case of an elderly diabetic patient with chronic angina pectoris who developed visual hallucinations during an acute worsening of kidney function after tolerating ranolazine well for six years. Regular monitoring of electrocardiograms, kidney function, and psychiatric and neurological adverse effects in elderly patients on ranolazine is advised.
