According to Dr. Oleg Rodmanov, a specialist in cardiovascular disease, in fact, patients with cardiovascular diseases often do not adhere to doctors, since only half of people with chronic cardiovascular diseases continue to follow the recommendations of doctors to take medications.
This indicates that cardiovascular diseases are still one of the main causes of death. Since among the common myths among patients, the return of blood pressure to its normal level means that there is no need for drugs. But natural values are often restored with systematic and regular treatment. Self -esteem of medication without consulting a doctor may lose control of the disease, which can often lead to serious consequences.
“Some patients use herbs, friends’ tips or recipes from the Internet instead of doctors, believing that folk remedies are better than cereals. They think they are safer. But in fact, this can lead to serious complications, especially with cardiovascular diseases, ”he says.
The specialist notes that without sufficient clarification, patients often do not see the value of treatment. It is also difficult for the patient to take his chronic disease, and patients are afraid of complex pharmaceutical systems. Because when the doctor prescribes several drugs, each of which has its own system, it is easy to confuse them.
But at present, it produces fixed combinations, one disk contains two and up to three drugs, which facilitates the obligation of treatment and, thus, increases the effectiveness of treatment and reduces the risk of complications. In addition, the reduction in the percentage of some components in these structures reduces the possibility of side effects.
He says: “Negative reactions when taking drugs are not the reason for the cessation of them, but rather a signal to adjust treatment. Most problems can be solved by changing the dose or replacement of the drug, but only under the supervision of a specialist. ”
