What medications are used to treat coronary artery calcification?

Coronary artery calcification is also called coronary artery atherosclerosis, which requires lipid-lowering and plaque stabilization, antiplatelet aggregation, blood pressure control and other treatments, please use the medication under the guidance of a professional doctor. The mechanism of coronary atherosclerosis formation is not yet clear, lipid deposition theory that cholesterol, lipoprotein deposition in the endothelium, so that the coronary artery atherosclerosis caused by luminal narrowing or occlusion, resulting in myocardial ischemia and hypoxia or necrosis caused by heart disease, referred to as coronary artery disease, is also known as ischemic heart disease. So clinically found coronary artery atherosclerosis, regardless of whether there is coronary heart disease, need to carry out drug treatment, mainly including the following points: 1. Lipid-adjusting drugs, patients with dyslipidemia should be preferred to statin lipid-regulating drugs that lower triglycerides and low-density lipoproteins, such as Rosuvastatin and Atorvastatin. Other lipid-lowering drugs include fibrates, ezetimibe and PCSK9 inhibitors. 2. Antiplatelet drugs. Drugs that fight platelet adhesion and aggregation can prevent thrombosis and help prevent the development of vascular obstructive lesions. The most commonly used oral medications are aspirin, clopidogrel, prasugrel and tegretol. 3. Antihypertensive drugs, if accompanied by hypertension patients, must control blood pressure, commonly used antihypertensive drugs are nifedipine extended-release tablets, timosartan tablets and so on. If it has developed to the stage of coronary heart disease, thrombolytic drugs and anticoagulant drugs, drugs to improve cardiac remodeling and prognosis, vasodilators, beta receptor antagonists, etc. need to be used according to the actual situation. Symptoms such as chest pain, fatigue, dizziness, etc. should be alerted to coronary heart disease and early medical attention is recommended.
