5 Treatment Options for Diastolic Heart Failure
Medications
Medications can be an effective way to deal with many health issues associated with diastolic heart failure. To widen or relax blood vessels, your doctor might suggest the use of long-acting nitrates, calcium channel blockers, or ARBs. Diuretics can be taken to reduce the accumulation of fluids, thus enabling blood to flow better. Anticoagulants are effective in treating this condition because they can thin the blood and prevent possible strokes. Some other drugs can also be combined to avoid heart valve issues, strokes, heart attacks, arrhythmia, or high blood pressure. Make sure to take these medications as instructed to prevent any side effects. [13]
