Brief Answer:

Kindly refer to the detailed answer below

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

After going through the medical details provided by you I understand your concern for your health and I would like to tell you that LV diastolic dysfunction happens when your heart muscles don’t relax properly and it happens commonly long-standing hypertension.

Indral helps in increasing the ventricular volume in patients with diastolic dysfunction and decrease heart rate and oxygen demand.

It’s recommended for you to take the Inderal as advised.

Hope I have answered your query.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Bhanu Partap, Cardiologist
