No contraindications for treadmill test Exclusion Criteria: 1. Intolerance or hypersensitivity to the components of the study drug. 2. Intake of succinic acid, L-arginine, malic acid, fumaric acid, anticoagulants, or hormones (with the exception of insulin) within 6 weeks before the start of screening, or the use of these medications is scheduled within the patient's participation in the study 3.
