Four contraindications to medication for patients with coronary heart disease!

  Control of the disease must be reasonable use of drugs, however, in the process of long-term medication, many patients with coronary heart disease but arbitrary, haphazard use of drugs, and even take it for granted to stop. Inappropriate medication will aggravate the condition, perhaps for a while do not see any impact, but the crisis is lurking in the dark, at any time will flare up, but also lead to a much higher rate of sudden death.  A taboo medication irregularity Coronary heart disease patients should be in what time of day medication is clearly defined. But some people do not think, as long as the daily amount of medicine to eat enough, any time to take medicine. This is not only detrimental to the improvement of the condition, but often leads to fatal cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction.  A temporal study on the onset of cardiovascular disease revealed that sudden heart attacks such as myocardial infarction have two peaks in a day: 1 to 2 hours after waking up and 10 to 12 hours thereafter, with the first peak being more pronounced. Drugs for cardiovascular disease usually reach effective therapeutic concentrations about 24 hours after administration. Therefore, a dosing method based on biological rhythms is proposed: once-a-day drugs should be taken at 7 am, twice a day at 7 am and 3 pm, and three times a day at 7 am, 12 noon, and 5 pm. This makes it possible to inhibit the appearance of the double peak and reduce the risk of sudden heart attacks and strokes.  The second contraindication is to stop taking medication without symptoms Many people only focus on the “table” but not on the “inside”, when there are symptoms when the medication is very timely and regular, no symptoms when the medication is arbitrarily reduced or stopped. They feel good about themselves, but behind the scenes there is a huge crisis. Clinically, these patients have a very high risk of myocardial infarction, and once the treatment is not timely, they may die instantly.  As long as the diagnosis of coronary heart disease is confirmed, regardless of whether there are obvious symptoms or not, medication should be standardized to control the development of the disease, even for those with occult coronary heart disease. At the same time, patients should realize that the treatment of coronary heart disease is a “protracted war”, unless the doctor allows, the medication must not have the slightest slack, otherwise, the condition may change or even aggravate at any time.  Three taboos randomly choose Chinese medicine Chinese medicine treatment of coronary heart disease has obvious advantages, especially for patients with poor results of Western medicine. But many people are confused, the Chinese medicine as Western medicine, see the cardiovascular disease effective to eat. Chinese medicines should not be used arbitrarily. First of all, you should distinguish between age, gender, physical factors, living environment, such as the northern side of dry, mostly blood stasis, the use of drugs can be used to activate blood stasis-based drugs, the southern side of the damp and warm, mostly phlegm and stasis-based, the use of drugs can be used to benefit the blood to dispel phlegm drugs. Secondly, traditional Chinese medicine has always focused on the combination of identification and identification of the disease, the disease is divided into types of evidence, evidence of differences, should be under the guidance of the doctor according to the disease selection of drugs.  Of course, attention should also be paid to the inadvisability of eating certain foods that have an effect on the efficacy of proprietary Chinese medicines, such as avoiding tea and radish for those who take medicines containing ginseng, so as not to affect the efficacy. It is necessary to pay attention to the contraindications of combining Chinese and Western medicines, such as aspirin cannot be combined with deer antler, licorice and its preparations, and blood-activating drugs such as salvia should not be taken at the same time with anticoagulant drugs such as warfarin, etc.  Many patients who have frequent angina attacks disappear rapidly after stent surgery, and even resume physical activities, so they think that everything is fine and they don’t need medication after surgery, but the danger still exists. Since patients have coronary artery sclerosis, stenosis can also occur in other parts of the body. Moreover, some patients have more vascular lesions and stents are placed in only a few important parts, and there are also stenotic vessels where no stents are placed. What should be paid special attention is that after stent implantation, if antithrombotic drugs are not taken consistently, there is a risk of life-threatening in-stent thrombosis.  Therefore, even if a stent is placed, you should also adhere to a healthy lifestyle, quit smoking and limiting alcohol to lower lipids, control blood pressure and blood sugar, and continue to take regular medication under the guidance of a doctor.
