What medications are used to delay heart failure?

Patient's question:

Medication for treating heart failure?

Doctor's answer:

Generally speaking, if heart failure occurs again, this situation requires the use of diuretics. Diuretics include many different types, such as loop diuretics, represented by furosemide, thiazide diuretics, potassium-sparing diuretics, and so on. However, these drugs may again lead to electrolyte disorders. In addition, there are β-blockers, which can inhibit sympathetic nerve activity, as well as angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin II receptor antagonists. Except for some positive inotropic drugs and vasodilator drugs.
