Antisclerotic
Antisclerotics are drugs that are used to treat and prevent atherosclerosis, which is a buildup of fatty deposits in the walls of arteries. These deposits can lead to blocked arteries, which can cause a variety of medical conditions such as coronary artery disease, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease. Antisclerotics are designed to reduce the amount of fatty deposits in the arteries, making them less prone to blockages. They work by reducing inflammation in the artery walls, preventing the buildup of cholesterol and other fats. Antisclerotics also reduce the risk of blood clots, which can lead to heart attack and stroke. In addition, they can also help to reduce high blood pressure and improve blood circulation.
