Many people survive heart attacks that reduce how well their hearts pump. Many are able to return to their normal lives with some help. Taking COREG CR after a heart attack that reduced how well your heart pumps can ease the strain on your heart. COREG CR is a once-a-day medicine that is proven to increase survival and help prevent another heart attack. Your doctor may also prescribe more than one medicine and suggest changes to your lifestyle, such as eating a healthful diet and getting more exercise, to help prevent another heart attack.
To prevent another heart attack and ease the strain on your heart, your doctor may prescribe COREG CR and other medicines such as:
- Aspirin or other medicines to prevent blood clots
- ACE inhibitors
Be sure to ask your doctor for more information about how each medicine helps your heart health. You may also want to ask how they may interact with COREG CR.
Along with taking medicine, you should make lifestyle changes to improve your heart health such as:
- Eating a healthful diet
- Getting more exercise
- Quitting smoking, if you smoke
