What medical therapies exist to relieve symptoms of SIHD?
Medical therapies exist to relieve symptoms of SIHD, such as anti-ischemic medications, beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, and nitrates. These medications can help to reduce chest pain, improve exercise capacity, and improve quality of life. However, they do not reduce the risk of cardiovascular events. Other treatments, such as chelation therapy, garlic, coenzyme Q10, selenium, and chromium, have not been studied rigorously and there is insufficient evidence to support their use for improving symptoms or preventing adverse outcomes in patients with SIHD.
