Can patients with coronary heart disease take bezoar?

Coronary heart disease patients can generally take bezoar. Bezoar is a traditional Chinese medicine that has effects of clearing heat, detoxifying, relieving constipation, and lubricating the intestines. It has certain therapeutic effects on cardiovascular conditions and hypertension. Taking an appropriate amount of bezoar may help alleviate symptoms such as chest tightness, shortness of breath, and difficulty breathing in patients with coronary heart disease. However, if a patient experiences a severe episode of coronary heart disease, prompt medical attention is recommended. Under a doctor's guidance, medications for treating coronary heart disease—such as captopril, bisoprolol fumarate, etc.—should be used.
