Suggest Treatment For Mitral Regurgitation
I have mitral valve regurgitation, which my dr. Says is worse than last checked a year or two ago. Seeing cardiologist next week. If he suggests a medication, what might it be and what would be the negative results of taking any of them? Which would you recommend?

Hi,
Your doctor may prescribe medication to treat symptoms, although medication can't treat mitral valve regurgitation. Medications may include diuretics. These medications can relieve fluid accumulation in your lungs or legs, which can accompany mitral valve regurgitation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Esmeralda Sera, Oncologist
