What is Congestive Heart Failure?

Congestive heart failure (CHF) is a chronic, progressive impairment of the ability of the heart muscle to pump oxygenated blood throughout the body. Left-sided heart failure is most common but may lead to right-sided heart failure. In early CHF, symptoms may be barely noticeable, but as it progresses, pulmonary edema and swelling of the abdomen, liver, and legs can become pronounced.

How Do Different Types of Congestive Heart Failure Medications Work?

There are several different classes of medications commonly used in the treatment of CHF:

  • Beta-blockers, such as Carvedilol, relieve some symptoms of CHF by improving left ventricular function.
  • ACE inhibitors, such as Captopril, improve blood flow by dilating the blood vessels and blocking the action of angiotensin, a powerful constricting substance.
  • Angiotensin receptor blockers, such as Losartan, also block the effects of angiotensin but through a different mechanism of action. They dilate the blood vessels, as well.
  • Aldosterone antagonists, such as Aldactone, are a type of diuretic that helps the kidneys produce more urine to reduce excess salt and water in the body. This makes it easier for the heart to pump.
  • Combination medications, such as Entresto, contain two or more of the above mechanisms.

Some of the most effective medications used in the treatment of congestive heart failure can be pretty pricey.
