Abstract:
A method and chemical composition for modifying and dissolving atherosclerotic plaques formed in a patient's blood vessels is provided. A chemical composition comprising one or more of an organic substance, an inorganic substance, and a bioactive substance is administered at sites of the plaques. The chemical composition comprises one or more of d-limonene, propylene glycol, octanoic acid, 2-octane, glycerine, acetylsalicylic acid, acetic acid, omega-3 fatty acids, ethanol, methanol, ezetimibe, rosuvastatin, resveratrol, lactic acid, gluconic acid, chloroform, carbon disulfide, dichloromethane, toluene, lauryldimethyl hydroxysultaine, and any combination thereof. The chemical composition enables modification of plaques by altering their composition. The modification comprises partial dissolution, complete dissolution, or elimination of the plaques, and makes the plaques amenable to different forms of plaque treatment. The modified plaques are eliminated from the patient's body. The modification or elimination of the plaques facilitates treatment of cardiovascular diseases caused due to plaques formed in the blood vessels.
