I'm a bit worried because my PRO BNP test came back abnormal with a value of 800. Can you tell me what steps I should take next? Is there any medication that can help lower it, or are there other treatments I should consider?
A high level of Pro BNP indicates heart failure. To decrease the Pro BNP levels, treatment usually involves medications such as ACE inhibitors like Lisinopril at a starting dose of 2.5-5 mg once daily, Beta blockers like Metoprolol at a starting dose of 25-50 mg once daily, and Diuretics like Furosemide at a starting dose of 20-40 mg once daily. Lifestyle changes such as reducing salt intake, regular exercise, and weight management are also important in managing heart failure and lowering Pro BNP levels.
