Article Synopsis
- Beta blockers (BB) and calcium channel blockers (CCB) are effective treatments for angina, and this study compares their effectiveness and safety for patients over one year.
- The study found that most patients were using CCB (54.4%) compared to BB (36.36%), with a small percentage on a combination of both (9.8%), but CCB showed better stability in heart rate and blood pressure.
- The results indicated that while both BB and CCB improved angina symptoms (with 83 out of 110 patients reporting benefits), CCB was associated with fewer adverse drug reactions (ADRs) than BB, suggesting it may be a safer long-term option.
