Treatment of Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction

Pharmacological treatments for patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction:

Guideline-recommended medical therapy (GDMT) for heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) can be suggested by the Heart Failure Educational Decision Aid medication optimization algorithm[1].

Nutritional supplements and hormonal therapies
Exercise training
Drugs to avoid
