The HWC understands that one of the greatest fears of a patient is the feeling of constantly being barraged with more and more medications! Most of the time the patient does not truly understand why they are on or even for how long they are to be on these medications. This is why Dr. Makki has simplified and refined his approach to medical therapy to limit their use to only the most essential, effective and clinically validated medical therapies.
In Cardiology, there are literally hundreds of drugs that can be prescribed regularly, but in each category there are always the standout medication that works best or is best tolerated by patients. It is these medications, about 15-20 total, that can achieve the most “bang for the buck”.
Cardiology Medications Categories:
With each individual category, there are “best in class” medications which work really well and are well tolerated; those would be the only medications we use at the HWC. If the desired goal is not being achieved by adding more medications, especially from multiple classes, then rather that keep adding more medications, we advocate re-focusing on Wellness!
A great illustration of this the principle is treatment of Hypertension (see our Blog Post!).
