After cerebral aneurysm intervention surgery, some patients need to take drugs all year round, but some patients don’t need to take drugs all year round, which must be analyzed and judged with the actual condition of the patients.
1. The situation of needing to take drugs all year round: after cerebral aneurysm intervention surgery, if the stent-assisted embolization therapy is taken, it is necessary to take aspirin, clopidogrel and other antiplatelet aggregation drugs for 6 months to 1 year, and then change to a separate kind of drug.
And after cerebral aneurysm intervention surgery, if there is some functional disorder, such as cognitive function decline, etc., you need to take long-term drugs to improve cognition, so that you can recover better.
2. Situations that do not need to take medication all year round: after cerebral aneurysm intervention surgery, there are many cases that do not need to take medication for a long period of time.
For example, it is just simple spring coil embolization surgical treatment, and the patient’s status is more stable after the operation. After the corresponding review, the patient’s condition has recovered better and the aneurysm has not shown any recurrence. In this case, long-term medication is generally not required.
It is recommended that patients with cerebral aneurysms follow the doctor’s instructions to actively carry out follow-up treatment, and should consult a doctor in time if any discomfort occurs after the operation.
