Generally speaking, carotid plaques cannot be eliminated once they are formed, but the progression of the disease can be slowed down by controlling risk factors, taking medications, and surgical treatments. 1. Control risk factors: pay attention to low-salt, low-fat diet, strictly quit smoking and drinking, reasonable exercise, weight control, avoid staying up late and excessive pressure. Actively intervene in risk factors such as hypertension, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, etc. to slow down the progression of the disease. 2. Take medication: Oral statin drugs such as atorvastatin and resuvastatin can be taken to lower the blood lipid level. Aspirin and clopidogrel can inhibit platelet aggregation. In addition, drugs such as metoprolol and nifedipine can be taken to lower blood pressure when combined with hypertension. When combined with diabetes, you can take hypoglycemic drugs, such as metformin and saxagliptin. 3. Surgery: Common surgical methods include carotid endarterectomy, carotid stenting, etc. It is suitable for cases where conservative treatment is ineffective and plaque significantly affects the blood supply to the brain. When carotid plaque is found, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time to assess the condition and give targeted treatment under the guidance of the doctor.
