Can congenital heart disease be treated by taking medicine

Congenital heart disease can be treated with medicine.

Congenital heart disease refers to abnormal heart structure during fetal development. Medical treatment may play a role in the management of congenital heart disease, aiming at controlling symptoms, improving heart function, preventing complications, etc. Patients can be treated with isosorbide dinitrate, isosorbide mononitrate, nitroglycerin and other drugs to improve myocardial blood supply, and digoxin, cedilanid, dopamine and other drugs to enhance myocardial contractility.

Medical treatment alone cannot cure the disease. Patients need surgery to improve and restore normal heart structure when necessary.
