The PML-N leader, who has been incarcerated in Adiala jail, was shifted to RIC on Monday after he complained of chest pain and a stent was placed in his artery.
A team of doctors is currently examining Abbasi, sources said.
Meanwhile, police officials said, "RIC’s VIP ward has been declared a sub-jail and no one is allowed to meet the PML-N leader."
"Jail police has been deployed at the CCU and VIP ward," the officials added.
Abbasi was sentenced to life imprisonment by the Control of Narcotics Substances (CNS) court in the ephedrine quota case on July 22. The PML-N leader faced charges of misusing 500kg of the controlled chemical ephedrine which he obtained for his company, Gray Pharmaceutical, in 2010.
The court, in its verdict announced after six years, ruled that 363kg of ephedrine quota could be accounted for, adding that Abbasi failed to provide evidence of the use of remaining quantity of the drug.
The court acquitted seven other accused in the case, giving them the benefit of doubt.
