Medicinal Treatment

To manage symptoms, prevent future attacks, and reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications.

Glyceryl trinitrate (GTN) for immediate relief during an angina attack.
Beta-blockers to help lower the chances of having angina attacks by reducing heart rate and blood pressure.
Low-dose aspirin or statins to reduce the overall risk of heart attack or stroke by preventing blood clots and lowering cholesterol.
Other medications may be prescribed to manage underlying conditions like high blood pressure or diabetes.

Surgical Treatment

To restore adequate blood flow to the heart muscle, alleviate severe symptoms, and improve long-term heart function.

Coronary angioplasty, a procedure to widen narrowed or blocked coronary arteries using a balloon and often inserting a stent.
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), a surgical procedure to create new routes for blood to flow around blocked arteries to the heart muscle.
In some cases, other advanced interventional cardiology procedures may be considered based on the specific nature of the blockages.
