Abstract
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) has remained the leading cause of death among adults for more than one hundred years. With persistently suboptimal outcomes and a profound economic burden on our healthcare system, there is growing interest in alternative treatment approaches for CVD. One such approach is Tongxinluo (TXL) capsules, a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). TXL is commonly used in China and offers a potentially safe, efficacious, and cost-effective treatment option. To address the limited awareness of TXL in the United States, this narrative review will provide a broad overview of its composition, pharmacological mechanisms, and clinical applications.
