3-in-1 pill cuts heart-related deaths

Plus: B-2 bomber fires first long-range stealth missile Sep 01, 2022 [Blueprint]( Together with Trinomia has landed. It may sound like somewhere two stars left of Arrakis, but it’s actually a [new pill that combines several heart medications](. Also known as a “polypill”, the researchers that developed it believe it could reduce the risk of strokes and cardiovascular death by a massive 33 percent. But before you dive into that, [dive into this video]( which shows a new underwater smartphone messaging app. Which sounds great from a safety perspective, but is there nowhere you can escape from your phone these days?!

The drug, which they’ve called “Trinomia”, combines several heart medications into a single pill — hence the name polypill. After studying patients recovering from a heart attack, researchers found that treatment with a polypill “resulted in a significantly lower risk of major adverse cardiovascular events than usual care.” These cardiovascular medications usually include three drugs; a blood thinning agent like aspirin, a cholesterol-lowering statin, and an ACE inhibitor to lower blood pressure. Researchers combined all three medications into a single pill and tested 50 variations to come up with the right recipe that would be the most beneficial. → The problem with multiple pills is that patients often do not stick to their medication regimens. Studies have shown that less than 50 percent of patients continue to take all their medications as instructed.
