Daily medication precautions for patients with coronary artery disease

  Many patients with coronary heart disease often make the following mistakes in daily medication: irregular medication; onset of medication, not onset of medication; frequent attacks of angina pectoris symptoms, do not know to go to the hospital; occurrence of severe chest pain, do not know self first aid, etc., now on the daily medication of patients with coronary heart disease to do a note to answer, I hope that the majority of patients with coronary heart disease benefit.  First, the daily medication of patients with coronary heart disease must be standardized and regular. The cause of coronary heart disease is not clear, so there is no cure for the time being, but through standardized and regular medication, it can effectively control its clinical symptoms, improve the quality of life and extend life. For all patients with coronary heart disease, do not take medication at will, which is not only detrimental to the improvement of the disease, in a sense, is a delay in the treatment of the disease, the consequences are very serious, often leading to myocardial infarction and other fatal cardiovascular events, so that the family grief.  Second, coronary heart disease patients with frequent episodes of angina symptoms, often suggesting that the condition has changed significantly, it is necessary to go to the hospital for specialist treatment. Frequent episodes of angina pectoris, the most fear of serious consequences such as myocardial infarction, once the first signs of this, you should go to the hospital for relevant examinations, and ask for specialist treatment. If, after examination, no serious conditions such as myocardial infarction are found or if the angina symptoms improve rapidly after adjusting the treatment plan, you can take the medicine home and continue treatment.  Third, for patients with severe coronary artery disease, medication is especially critical when coronary angiography confirms severe lesions in three branches of the coronary arteries and the patient cannot undergo surgical treatment. For such patients, in the daily standardized and regular medication, patients can take quick-acting heart or nitroglycerin tablets before carrying out related activities to improve myocardial blood supply and avoid the onset of angina pectoris.  Fourth, when severe chest pain occurs, it is important to know the knowledge of self-first aid. First of all, do not be nervous, first contain quick-acting heart pills, compound Danshin drops or nitroglycerin tablets and other drugs, these drugs can be used repeatedly, the first angina symptoms properly controlled, if after the above treatment, angina symptoms relief, you can continue to observe the changes in the condition at home. If, after the above treatment, the angina is still not relieved, it is necessary to immediately call the hospital to inform them and go to the hospital for appropriate consultation and treatment. When severe chest pain occurs, you must pay attention to rest, do not carry hard, the consequences of carrying hard is likely to lead to myocardial infarction, sudden death.  Fifth, patients with coronary heart disease need appropriate exercise. Although angina mostly attacks during exertion, which often suggests too much exercise. Appropriate exercise is conducive to improving the adaptability of the myocardium to ischemia and improving angina symptoms, and patients with coronary heart disease are advised to take a walk, play tai chi, yoga and other aerobic exercises.  Sixth, while taking western medicine regularly, appropriate with Chinese medicine is very helpful to improve the patient’s symptoms and quality of life. Chinese medicine has obvious advantages in the treatment of coronary heart disease, especially for patients who are not effective with western medicine or are afraid of western medicine. Treatment with TCM can also significantly improve angina symptoms when angina symptoms occur frequently. To some extent, Chinese medicine is no less effective than Western medicine.  Although interventional therapy is relatively less traumatic and risky, not every patient can accept it; although the efficacy of surgical treatment is more certain, it is more traumatic and risky, mostly for those with diffuse coronary lesions and serious conditions; medication is the basis of coronary heart disease treatment, and effective and reasonable use of medication can significantly improve the quality of life and survival rate of coronary heart disease patients. It is hoped that each patient with coronary heart disease can use drugs in a standardized and regular manner to reduce the occurrence of fatal cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction.
