Stroke: can it be cured?

Once the stroke has occurred, the short answer is no. There is no known drug which can completely eliminate the possibility of a stroke or offer a guaranteed cure.

However, early diagnosis and quick action when a stroke does occur can reduce its severity.

For stroke patients suffering loss of speech, movement, thought processes or sensory reaction, rehabilitation is also possible with the assistance of physical, occupational or speech therapists.
