In Heart attack
Glaniknase Injection helps lower your blood pressure and make it easier for your heart to pump blood around your body. This reduces the chances of you having a heart attack. It can also reduce the risk of dying if it is given immediately after a heart attack. It is given as an injection by a doctor or nurse and should not be self-administered.
