What Are the Strategies for Preventing or Managing Vascular Damage?
Prevention and management of vascular damage involve minimizing exposure to known toxic agents, adopting lifestyle changes, and using pharmacological interventions when necessary. Avoiding smoking and limiting exposure to environmental pollutants are crucial preventive measures. Nutritional approaches, such as diets rich in antioxidants, may help mitigate oxidative stress. In cases where exposure cannot be avoided, medications such as statins, ACE inhibitors, or antiplatelet agents may be prescribed to reduce vascular risk and manage existing damage.
