The type of patient described above has yet to take certain drugs for life. They are:

Treatment with PAA # - clopidogrel and aspirin are antiplatelet medications that is given to help prevent blood clots that can block the graft. Clopidogrel is continued for at least one year after surgery while aspirin is usually recommended indefinitely. The free graft block is the action of choice is necessary.

# Nitrates are commonly used to treat or prevent further episodes of chest pain. Nitrates may be administered to patients after CABG if some of the coronary blood vessels could not be bypassed.

Lipid-Lowering Treatment # - Almost all patients receive a medication to lower lipids after CABG. High cholesterol can be beneficial both before and after coronary bypass surgery because it can halt the progression of atherosclerosis in native vessels and graft.

Lipid therapies are recommended even for patients who have values that are in the "normal".

So, even this special patient needs medication for life for the sake of long-term benefits.
