In recent years, there's been a focus on multimodal treatment - meaning that healthcare providers have been combining different treatments together that affect different systems inside the body in order to have a more robust effect on treating stroke-related issues.
A lot also depends on the causes of the stroke as well as the context of the patient.
Some examples of these treatments include:
-Medications - either pharmaceuticals designed specifically to help fight against potential future strokes or medications used to treat another medical issue but which also have side effects that work well for patients who've had a stroke
-Physical therapy - used both while recovering from a stroke and afterward as needed by many individuals.
