2 Treatment Options for Ischemic Heart Disease

Medications

There are many medications to help alleviate symptoms of ischemic heart disease. Your doctor would prescribe beta-blockers to prevent arrhythmia, particularly when you have a heart attack. ACE inhibitors can be taken to improve blood flow and relax your blood vessels, which can be effective for advanced cases. To reduce the risk of cardiac syndromes, an aspirin regimen can help. If you have some health issues that are associated with ischemic heart disease like diabetes or hypertension, your doctor can also suggest specific drugs to control them. [10]
