My dad is two years with heart failure. Hes on a drip I think its sodium chloride which he has been on for two weeks. Once taken off, he became fluid filled within hours. A pacemaker has helped keep him alive. He is off drip and seems ok but 48 hours will tell. He was already told he’s not strong enough for heart surgery . Please advise.
I am sorry to hear of your fathers condition. The medication your father is taking is most likely a medication drip which contains Sodium Chloride but not sodium chloride alone. I recommend reviewing our Treatment section, researching new heart failure medications such as, Ivabridine or Entresto, and speaking with your fathers doctor on available options in your area.
