Cardiac Care

Rosuvastatin is indicated in- Heterozygous Hypercholesterolemia (Familial and Non familial) Homozygous Hypercholesterolemia (Familial) Mixed Dyslipidemia (Fredrickson Type IIa and IIb) Primary prevention of cardiovascular disease

Aspirin is used for its antiplatelet activity in the initial treatment of cardiovascular disorders such as angina pectoris and myocardial infarction and for the prevention of cardiovascular events in a variety of conditions or procedures for patients at risk. Aspirin is used as part of the initial treatment of unstable angina. It is given in the early treatment of myocardial infarction. It may also be of some benefit in the initial treatment of acute ischaemic stroke. It is of value for the secondary prevention of cardiovascular events in patients with stable or unstable angina or those with acute or prior myocardial infarction. Aspirin reduces the risk of future serious vascular events, including stroke, in patients who have already suffered an ischaemic stroke or transient ischaemic attack. It is of use in the long-term management of atrial fibrillation, for the prevention of stroke in patients with contraindications to warfarin or if there are no other risk factors for stroke. It is recommended for use in preventing thrombotic complications associated with procedures such as angioplasty and coronary bypass grafting.

Bisoprolol is indicatedin- Hypertension Angina Moderate to severe heart failure

Hypertension: Losartan Potassium is indicated for the treatment of hypertension. It may be used alone or in combination with other antihypertensive agents (eg. thiazide diuretics). Renal Protection in Type-2 Diabetic Patients with Proteinuria: Losartan Potassium is indicated to delay the progression of renal disease in hypertensive type-2 diabetics with proteinuria, defined as urinary albumin to creatinine ratio >300 mg/g.

Anti-platelet drugs

Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS): It is indicated to reduce the rate of myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke in patients with non-ST-segment elevation ACS [unstable angina (UA)/non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI)]. It is indicated to reduce the rate of myocardial infarction and stroke in patients with acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI).

Recent MI, recent Stroke, or established Peripheral Arterial Disease: In patients with established peripheral arterial disease or with a history of recent myocardial infarction (MI) or recent stroke it is indicated to reduce the rate of MI and stroke.

Anti-platelet drugs

Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS): It is indicated to reduce the rate of Myocardial Infarction (MI) and Stroke in patients with non-ST-segment elevation ACS [unstable angina (UA)/non-ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction (NSTEMI)] and acute ST-segment elevation ACS [ST-elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI)].

Recent MI, recent Stroke, or established Peripheral Arterial Disease: In patients with established peripheral arterial disease or with a history of recent Myocardial Infarction (MI) or recent Stroke it is indicated to reduce the rate of MI and Stroke.

Alpha adrenoceptor blocking drugs

Hypertension (Primary and Secondary Hypertension). Raynaud's phenomenon and Raynaud's disease, Congestive heart failure (Prazosin may be used alone or added to the therapeutic regimen in those patients with congestive heart failure who are resistant or refractory to conventional therapy with diuretics and/or cardiac glycosides) & Benign prostatic hyperplasia (For the symptomatic treatment of urinary obstruction due to BPH and in patients awaiting prostatic surgery).
