Using Medicinal Plants Among Patients With Cardiovascular Diseases and Their Related Factors: A Cross-Sectional Study
Subject
Cardiovascular diseases, Nonprescription drugs, Herbal medicine
Description
Introduction: The use of Medicinal Plants (MP) is increasing among the general population
and patients with Cardiovascular Diseases (CVD). Simultaneous use of MP and cardiac
medications can cause drug interactions and serious complications.
Objective: This study aimed to determine the frequency of MP use and its related factors
among patients with CVD.
Materials and Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted on 200 patients with
CVD in 2018. The patients were consecutively recruited from the cardiac care clinic in an
Educational and Medical Center in Kashan City, Iran. The study data were collected using
an MP use questionnaire, the related factors of the MP use questionnaire, and the belief
and attitudes about herbal medicine inventory. For data analysis, the logistic regression
analysis was performed.
Results: The Mean±SD age of the participants was 56.91±10.64 years. Their Mean±SD time
passed from CVD diagnosis was 8.30±9.07 years. The frequency of MP use over the past year
was 90.5% (95% CI; 86.4%–94.6%). The significant related factors of MP use were female
gender (OR=4.80, 95% CI; 1.43–16.1, P=0.011), positive family history of MP use (OR=8.84,
95% CI; 2.62–29.86, P=0.0001), and knowledge about herbal medicine (OR=1.93, 95% CI;
1.13–3.30, P=0.017).
Conclusion: MP use is highly prevalent among patients with CVD. MP-related counseling
services should be provided to patients with CVD.
