MFDS drug class 02100

This classification includes medications used to improve heart and vascular function.

Commonly used for

What kind of medicines are these?

Cardiovascular drugs are used to improve the function of the heart and blood vessels or to facilitate blood circulation. They are used to alleviate symptoms of cardiovascular-related conditions such as hypertension, heart failure, and angina.

These drugs improve blood circulation by dilating blood vessels or regulating the contractility of the heart muscle. They also work to lower blood pressure or reduce the burden on the heart.

Good to know

Cardiovascular drugs include medications that act directly on the heart and blood vessels, and are distinct from anticoagulants or lipid-regulating drugs. Unlike other classifications with similar names, they encompass medications that affect the entire cardiovascular system.
