Research Notes on Angina Relief
Angina relief can be accomplished with heparin medications such as Lovenox (enoxaparin), Fragmin (dalteparin), and Fraxiparin (nadroparin).1 Angina can also be relieved through dietary changes such as avoiding saturated fat and adding more omega-3 fatty acids. Lifestyle changes to help with angina relief include quitting smoking, getting plenty of exercise, and reducing stress.2
Fast Facts:
- The optimal treatment plan for angina relief is tailored to a person's age, other medical conditions, lifestyle, personal preferences, medication side effects, and the risks of procedures.3
