Hello everyone, I'm Dr. Liu Lei. As the pace of modern life accelerates, more and more people are paying attention to heart health. And Chinese patent medicines such as fast-acting heart-saving pills have become the choice of many people.
These drugs have certain efficacy in relieving angina pectoris and improving myocardial ischemia, but are they harmful to the body when used for a long time?
First, we need to understand the mechanism of action of these drugs. The main ingredients of the quick-acting Xingxin pill are Chuanxiong and borneol, which have the effects of dilating coronary arteries and increasing oxygen supply to the myocardiumIt is suitable for relieving symptoms such as angina pectoris and myocardial ischemia. It can be used for coronary heart disease, myocarditis and other diseases.
However, the effects of long-term use of these drugs on the body cannot be ignored. First of all, long-term use of fast-acting pills may develop drug resistance, which makes the drug less effective the next time it is used. In addition, the borneol ingredient in the fast-acting pill may cause gastrointestinal discomfort, nausea, vomiting and other adverse reactions. Long-term use of musk pills may also lead to drug resistance, and at the same time, because musk has the effect of invigorating blood and removing blood stasis.
Long-term use may cause heavy menstrual bleeding or miscarriage in pregnant women. Although traditional Chinese medicine ingredients such as astragalus in Naoxintong have the effect of tonifying qi, long-term use may cause liver and kidney damage. Although Ginseng Song Yangxin Capsule has anti-arrhythmic effects, long-term use may also produce drug resistance, and traditional Chinese medicine ingredients such as ginseng may affect gastrointestinal function, resulting in diarrhea, bloating and other symptoms.
In addition, there are some contraindications to be aware of when taking these drugs. For example, both Quick-Acting Xingxin Pill and Musk Baoxin Pill contain ingredients that invigorate blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis, so pregnant women and patients with bleeding tendencies should use them with caution.
Traditional Chinese medicine ingredients such as astragalus in Naoxintong may cause allergic reactions, so people with allergies should take an allergy test first. Ginseng Song Yangxin Capsule contains a variety of traditional Chinese medicine ingredients, so people with allergies should also take an allergy test first.
For patients with heart disease, it is more important to maintain heart health by improving Xi lifestyle and adjusting dietary structure. If the heart disease is more severe, it is recommended to seek medical attention and receive professional advice**. Heart
