Cardiovascular medications range from antianginals that pump more oxygen to the heart to vasodilators that widen blood vessels. Following are descriptions of some of the common categories for cardiovascular prescription medications. An individual's response to a medication is usually dose dependent. As dosage increases, so does the effect. When the appropriate amount is taken and is available to the body, the dose level is therapeutic and the desired response is achieved. Subtherapeutic doses are less than optimal, as they contain drug amounts below what is deemed necessary for effective treatment. Drug levels higher than necessary can produce intensified effects, toxic levels, side effects and/or adverse effects.

Researchers have found a connection between the abuse of most drugs and adverse cardiovascular effects, ranging from abnormal heart rate to heart attacks. There are an ever increasing number of drugs commonly used in cardiovascular medicine. New families of drugs are discovered on a regular basis and within these families of drugs, newer single agents are developed frequently.
