There are some proprietary Chinese medicines that can prevent stroke to a certain extent, such as aspirin, clopidogrel, atorvastatin and other western medicines, as well as Naoxintong capsules, Huatuo Zaizao pills and other traditional Chinese medicines. However, attention should be paid to using them under the guidance of a doctor, and they cannot replace regular treatment and preventive measures. There are some proprietary Chinese medicines that can prevent stroke to a certain extent. The following are some commonly used drugs: 1. Aspirin: Aspirin is an antiplatelet drug that inhibits platelet aggregation and prevents thrombosis, thereby reducing the risk of stroke. 2. Clopidogrel: Clopidogrel has a similar mechanism of action to aspirin and can be used to prevent stroke. 3. Atorvastatin: Statins can reduce blood lipid levels, stabilize plaque, prevent the progression of atherosclerosis, and thus reduce the incidence of stroke. 4. Naoxintong capsule: consists of astragalus root, radix paeoniae rubra, salvia miltiorrhiza, angelica, ligusticum wallichii, peach kernel, safflower, frankincense, myrrh, spatholobus stem, achyranthes root, cassia twig, mulberry twig, earthworm, scorpion, leech and other traditional Chinese medicines, and has the effects of invigorating qi, activating blood circulation, removing blood stasis and dredging collaterals. It is suitable for apoplexy caused by qi deficiency and blood stasis, meridian stagnation, hemiplegia, limb numbness, mouth and eye deviation, strong tongue and chest pain, chest distress, palpitation, shortness of breath, etc. 5. Huatuo Zaizao Pill: composed of Szechuan lovage rhizome, evodia rutaecarpa, borneol and other traditional Chinese medicines, it has the effects of activating blood circulation, removing phlegm, dredging collaterals, promoting qi and relieving pain. It is suitable for recovery period and sequela of stroke caused by phlegm and blood stasis. The symptoms include hemiplegia, spasm numbness, mouth and eyes askew and unclear speech. It should be noted that the use of Chinese patent medicine needs to be carried out under the guidance of doctors, because each person's constitution and condition are different, and the medication will be different. In addition, stroke prevention also needs to take comprehensive measures, including control of blood pressure, blood sugar, blood lipids, smoking and alcohol restriction, healthy diet, moderate exercise, etc. In short, Chinese patent medicine can prevent stroke to a certain extent, but it cannot replace regular treatment and prevention measures. If there are high risk factors for stroke or stroke has occurred, you should seek medical attention in time and accept professional treatment and management.
