How Effective Is Ozone Therapy For Heart Patients?
Hi how effective is ozone Therapy for heart Patients. Where does it happen in Bangalore. Are there any side effects. How much does it cost. How often are we supposed to go for therapy. My friend is turning 75, male, would you recommend Ozone Therapy, instead of bypass. Regards Rajesh
Hey, These types of therapy like ozone therapy to treat blockage in heart vessels are not approved and their efficacy is not yet proved by any study. Still peoples are conducting this. I being a cardiologist do not recommlend this and recommend you to take a decision for CABG(by pass surgery) which is a very good surgery and has excellent long term prognosis. It might sound little fearful for the patient as it is a major surgery but believe me it has very good results if the patient is fit for surgery. So you have to think over again & make a decision which is good for your health.
Thanks Dr Sameer Maheshwari
