Yangxinshi Tablets are a traditional Chinese medicine primarily used as an adjunctive treatment for cardiovascular diseases such as coronary heart disease and angina pectoris. Key medication precautions include using the drug according to medical advice and pattern differentiation, maintaining appropriate dosage, avoiding use in contraindicated populations, being cautious of drug interactions, and monitoring for adverse reactions. If severe discomfort occurs or symptoms fail to improve after taking the medication, prompt medical consultation is recommended.
1. Use according to medical guidance and pattern differentiation: Yangxinshi Tablets are suitable for coronary heart disease and angina pectoris of the qi deficiency and blood stasis pattern. The medication should be used under a physician's supervision based on proper diagnosis. Blind use by patients who do not match this specific pattern may prove ineffective or even worsen the condition.
2. Maintain appropriate dosage: Do not increase the dose or extend the treatment duration without medical advice. Overuse may increase gastrointestinal burden, particularly in elderly patients, who must strictly adhere to the prescribed dosage.
3. Avoid use in contraindicated populations: The drug is contraindicated in individuals allergic to any of its components. Pregnant women, lactating mothers, and those with spleen-stomach deficiency and coldness should use it with caution. Patients with allergic predispositions should carefully read the instruction leaflet and consult a physician before use.
4. Be cautious of drug interactions: When used concomitantly with other medications for myocardial ischemia, antihypertensives, or antidiabetic drugs, potential synergistic effects may occur. Dosage adjustments should only be made under a physician’s guidance to avoid adverse reactions from self-initiated combination therapy.
5. Monitor for adverse reactions: During treatment, gastrointestinal discomfort such as nausea and abdominal distension, or symptoms like dizziness and fatigue may occur. If these symptoms persist or worsen, discontinue the drug immediately and inform your physician to prevent delayed management.
Diet during treatment should be light, low-salt, and low-fat; avoid spicy and greasy foods. Maintain regular sleep patterns and avoid staying up late. Engage in moderate physical activity but avoid strenuous exercise. Regularly monitor heart rate and blood pressure, and follow up with your doctor as scheduled to adjust the treatment plan accordingly.
