Everyone wants to live a life free from stress and diseases but not many of us understand the importance of exercise and heart care in the young age itself. Heart is actually a muscular organ pumping and delivering pure blood to all the organs of human body. Proper diet and apt life style should be followed in order to prevent from the life threatening heart attack disease and it is vital to maintain a fit body and protect ourselves from heart failure.

All of us agree that we do take the drugs prescribed by famous physicians without questioning him /her about its ingenuity and yes we trust a doctor and his prescription. However the recent news from the Toronto Clinical studies has shocked millions and we need to ask ourselves are we talking in the approved safe medicine for preventing heart failures. This is because the studies have clearly revealed the name of popular heart failure (In French insuffisance cardiaque) prescription drug as contagious and deadly.

This truth might be unknown to many heart patients as they on their part would exercise, stick to proper diet and take in the prescribed drugs to stay away from the heart disease. All of a sudden this healthy person might experience massive heart attack (In French attaque cardiaque) and he/she might pass away. Those who were near and dear to the dead person would mourn and later leave the whole issue. Now if one is very prudent and skilled in checking all the prescribed drugs he/she had taken they might come to know that the dead person would have unknowingly taken in a prescription drug named Spironolactone and this would have triggered the slow but steady failure of the heart. The deadly nature of this drug was unknown until last year and when studies and research from Toronto Medial Studies proved about the drug’s harmful nature it is indeed surprising to see that not only many common people but even the famous physicians stood for the drug.

“I have no doubt that this drug when used in the right patients and with more careful monitoring is still a good drug combination…..”rnThese are the words of a researcher who advocates the Spironolactone .This drug has caused more than 30% of heart failure death in many countries and more than 27,000 hospitalizations each and every year. So we, the ones affected by the drug should not remain idle.

We the general public should voice and raise campaigns against the pharmaceutical manufacturer of this drug .This drug should be yanked off from the consumer market and ignorant people should be made aware and they need to be very sure if they take in the correct as well as safe drug for their heart failure prevention.
