Abstract

The health effects of both primary or secondary prevention strategies outperform any method used to treat any acute cardiovascular diseases. The paper highlights basic impediments associated with individual implementation of recommended health preserving behaviors and treatments. The most critical barriers limiting possible health benefits of prevention are discussed. The health benefits of the use and popularization among physicians of single pill combination and hybrid therapy are also brought into focus.
