For Patients with Heart Failure with Reduced Ejection Fraction
Understanding your heart failure medicines is important. Use the interactive HeartMeds Guide checklist to track your heart failure medicines more easily. It can be used to compare your current medicines and doses to an ideal medicine plan with maximum goal doses. You will see, there are several different types of medicines just for treating a weak heart. Each medicine works differently, and figuring out the best combination for each person can be tough. This is why it is important that you review your medicines with your doctor and ask about the best medicines for you before you make any changes. You might feel uncomfortable asking your doctor about medicines, but remember: they’re the expert on medicine, and you’re the expert on you. You both need each other’s expertise to find the absolute best solution for you. For more information on your heart failure medication please review our video.
