Ivabradine, sold under the brand name Procoralan among others, is a medication used for long term stable heart-related chest pain and heart failure. It may be used when the heart rate is at least 70 beats per minute and the condition is not fully managed by beta blockers. It is taken by mouth.

Common side effects include temporarily seeing brightness and slow heart rate. Other side effects may include atrial fibrillation and angioedema. Use during pregnancy may harm the baby. It works by blocking If current in the sinus node which lowers the heart rate.

Ivabradine was approved for medical use in Europe in 2005 and the United States in 2015. It is available as a generic medication. In the United Kingdom 4 weeks of medication costs the NHS about £5. In the United States this amount costs about 450 USD.
