Summary

The goal of this study is to evaluate whether supervised treadmill exercise combined with ranolazine 1000 mg twice daily provides an incremental benefit in absolute walking distance over supervised exercise alone in patients with stable claudication. Investigators also seek to determine if the administration of ranolazine provides a sustained benefit after the completion of a supervised exercise regimen. Lastly, investigators wish to determine whether both exercise and ranolazine improves peak oxygen consumption and anaerobic threshold in patients with stable claudication.

Group I: Phase 1 -Ranolazine, Phase 2 -PlaceboActive Control2 Interventions
This group will participate in the Phase 1 -12 week supervised exercise program and will additionally receive ranolazine 1000 mg orally, twice daily, by mouth. In Phase 2, the group will exercise independently and will receive a sugar pill in place of the study drug.
