Hi,
The primary relief with the best analgesic for a heart patient is paracetamol (650 mg) or tramadol hydrochloride (50 mg) after meals if no history of drug sensitivity after discussion with your cardiologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
