Sincerely, (s) David Childs The Dalles Preventing and Reliev ing Angina Pain During the mid-1700s the term “angina" was first used to describe chest pain that resulted from exer tion and was relieved with rest. Today angina refers to pain which results from a lack of oxygen in the heart. The delivery of oxygen from the lungs to the heart can be inter rupted by blockage in heart blood vessels or by vessel spasms. If oxy gen demand is great, heart tissue can be destroyed, and might lead to a heart attack. Risk factors that may contrib ute to angina include smoking, lack of exercise, obesity, excess stress, high blood pressure, and high blood cholesterol. Bypass surgery may be necessary if lifestyle changes and medicines are not effective in controlling or preventing angina pain. Angina medicines include: Nitrates: Nitroglycerin prevents and relieves chest pain by relaxing the muscles that surround blood vessels in the heart. Nitroglycerin is available as a sublingual (for under the tongue) tablet, oral tab let, oral capsule, ointment, skin patch, and a spray. Calcium blockers: Nifedipine, nicardipine, verapimil and other calcium blockers reduce the demand for oxygen and improve blood flow in the heart. Beta blockers: Propranolol, timolol, and other beta blockers reduce the workload of the heart and thus decrease oxygen demands. -AT* Cattle Supplements 250 lb.
