What are the best treatment options for a patient diagnosed with stenosis?
A. For patients with less than 50 percent stenosis, medical therapy is often prescribed. These treatments include anticoagulent drugs, like Warfin, and antiplatelet drugs, like aspirin, Ticlopidine and Plevix.. Patients with more than 50 percent stenosis often require a more aggressive approach including carotid endarterectomy and endovascular stenting.
