Heart failure is also known as heart failure, and the treatment of heart failure needs to be chosen according to whether the disease is in the acute or chronic stage. In the acute stage of heart failure, diuretics and cardiotonic drugs can be chosen as the main symptomatic treatment, while in the chronic stage, antihypertensive and lipid-lowering drugs can be chosen as the main causative treatment.
1. When heart failure is in the chronic stage, the treatment of heart failure is mainly causative treatment and symptomatic treatment. Causal treatment is mainly for coronary heart disease and hypertension, choose aspirin, nifedipine and other anti-platelet aggregation, antihypertensive drug treatment; symptomatic treatment can choose hydrochlorothiazide and other drugs to reduce the cardiac load, or choose digoxin and other drugs to enhance myocardial contractility treatment.
2. When heart failure is in the acute stage, the treatment of heart failure is based on symptomatic treatment, supplemented by symptomatic treatment. In acute heart failure, cardiac function is severely reduced, so drugs such as furosemide are chosen to rapidly reduce the cardiac load, and at the same time, cardiotonic drugs such as milrinone are added to enhance myocardial contractility to relieve the symptoms of the acute stage. Heart transplantation is also an option when the situation permits.
If heart failure has been diagnosed, with chest tightness and shortness of breath and other uncomfortable symptoms appear, you need to consult a doctor in a timely manner, under the guidance of the doctor for standardized treatment.
