Abstract
Drug therapy for congestive heart failure can prove problematic. What complication warrants the discontinuation of digitalis therapy? Which diuretics work best in refractory cases? How important is a salt-restricted diet? Under what conditions is an arteriolar vasodilator preferable to a venous vasodilator? Are beta-adrenergic agonists of value in treating acute failure? Dr Horwitz answers all these questions and more as he specifies which drugs, dosages, and routes of administration are safe and effective.
