"How is cerebellar infarction treated with Western medicine?"

1. The common causes of cerebellar infarction are arteriosclerosis due to hypertension, heart disease, and diabetes. During treatment, some antihypertensive drugs or medications for heart disease and diabetes are used. Some of these drugs may have side effects such as gastrointestinal irritation, weakness, and even vomiting and diarrhea, such as Nifedipine, Flunarizine, and Adalat GITS. Once these drugs are discontinued or the dosage is adjusted, the symptoms will significantly diminish. Generally, elderly patients should choose long-term traditional Chinese medicine as an adjunct to treatment during acute onset. During the recovery phase, it alleviates symptoms, reduces toxic and side effects, and ensures certain long-term safety.

2. Comprehensive treatment for cerebellar infarction should include effective pharmacological therapy, a bland diet adjustment, targeted rehabilitation training, risk factor control, effective and accurate home care, etc.

Combined with traditional Chinese medicine that promotes blood circulation to remove blood stasis, aromatically opens orifices, reduces lipids, and anticoagulant treatment, the therapeutic effect is more significant.
