Overview

Nutritional supplements and hormonal supplements have not been proved to be of any benefit in patients with heart failure and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction.

2017 ACC/AHA/HFSA Focused Update of the 2013 ACCF/AHA Guideline for the Management of Heart Failure

Nutritional Supplements in Patients Presenting With Heart Failure (DO NOT EDIT)

Class III (No Benefit)

1. Routine use of nutritional supplements is not recommended for patients with HFpEF. (Class III, Level of Evidence: C)

Hormonal Therapies in Patients Presenting With Heart Failure (DO NOT EDIT) [1][2]

Class III (No Benefit)
"1. Hormonal therapies other than to replete deficiencies are not recommended and may be harmful to patients with current or prior symptoms of heart failure and reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). (Level of Evidence: C) "
