Can congenital heart disease be treated with medication?

Congenital heart disease can be treated with drugs.

Drug therapy is mainly for complications caused by congenital heart disease, such as heart failure and arrhythmia. Commonly used drug therapy includes diuretic drugs, cardiotonic drugs, antiarrhythmic drugs, etc., which can improve the discomfort symptoms such as palpitation, edema, palpitation, etc., so as to improve the quality of life of patients. However, it should be noted that drug therapy can not change the anatomical structure of congenital heart disease, such as atrial septal defect, which requires surgery or interventional surgery.

Therefore, patients with congenital heart disease should choose appropriate treatment methods according to the specific condition under the guidance of doctors.
