Are There Any Supplements To Heal The Valves Of The Heart?

Posted on Fri, 24 Jun 2016

Question: I have been implanted with a fibrillator Pacemaker. Is there any medication or supplement that can help me heal the valves of my heart and have the pacemaker taken out again? I am taking Multag of 400mg twice a day and I feel fine now. But I am worry about side effects down the road. The only thing I noticed in myself is a short term loss of memory, like I would thing of something to do, and when I turn around to do it, I forgot what it is and it took several minutes for me to remember. I don't know if this has anything to do with Multag.

Repair heart

Detailed Answer:
Thank you for contacting HCM with your health care concerns

I am sorry to hear that you need a pacemaker defibrillator. YOu are wondering if there are any medications or supplements that will help heal your heart so you will not dependent on pacemaker. There are no medications or supplements that can heal the reasons for your defibrillator. I can recommend that you do your best though to improve your heart health. I would recommend low fat diet, exercise regularly, avoid alcohol and stress. If you can do these things you can repair your heart and perhaps be less dependent on the pacemaker. I would recommend too that you continue to take your medication Multaq. It helps prevent irregular and dangerous heart arrhythmias.

I hope I answered your question. Please contact us again if you have any additional questions
