Inclusion Criteria

  • •MD patients aged 13 or more
  • •With high value in BNP (100 pg/mL or more)
  • •Those introduced with standard myocardium protective drugs (angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI)/angiotensin type II receptor blocker (ARB) and/or beta blocker) who meets both of the following:
  • •taking maintenance doses at the time of consent;
  • •whose dosage regimen and doses are fixed from 2 weeks before the start of administration until the start of administration.
  • •To whom intrinsic administration of capsule, fine granules or dry syrup is possible, or who can be reliably administered tranilast by tube
  • •Provided written consent by their free will / the representative

Exclusion Criteria

  • •Acute stage heart failure condition (using cardiotonic, diuretic, antiarrhythmic drug intravenously)
  • •From 2 weeks before the start of administration to the start of administration Directions of digitalis, diuretic, aldosterone antagonist, cardiotonic agent, antiarrhythmic drug are not fixed
  • •With a lethal arrhythmia including ventricular premature contraction of more than four (short run)), excluding those with transplanted implantable defibrillators
  • •With serious renal dysfunction (estimated glomerular filtration ratio (eGFR) using cystatin C of less than 30 mL/min/1.73 m2)
  • •Male: eGFR = (104 ^ Cystatin C-1.019^ 0.996age (years)) - 8
  • •Female: eGFR = (104 ^ Cystatin C-1.019 ^ 0.996age (years) ^ 0.929) - 8
  • •For those aged 18 or less, cyctain C of 2.5 mg/L or more is used.
  • •With severe liver function disorder (T. Bil of 10 mg/dl or more, AST and ALT of 500 IU/L or more, ALP of 5 times or more of the normal upper limit, PT of 40% or less, bleeding tendency, hepatic failure symptoms (fulminant hepatitis), cirrhosis of the liver, liver tumor, jaundice prolonged for more than 6 months) (equivalent to grade 3 in "Classification criteria for severity of adverse drug reactions" )
  • •Marked white blood cell (WBC) decrease (less than 3000/mm^3), platelet (Plt) decrease (less than 80,000/mm^3)
  • •Having a history of hypersensitivity to tranilast
  • •Pregnant or possibly pregnant
  • •For whom the principal investigator/sub-investigators judged not appropriate for participation in this study
