How are you? There are different types of cardiomyopathy and each has different treatment. This condition does not go away on its own. The goals of treatment include management of signs and symptoms, reduction of risk of complications and prevention of worsening condition. Dilated cardiomyopathy is manged with medications, surgically implanted devices, or a combination of both. For the treatment for restrictive cardiomyopathy, medications on improving symptoms are prescribed such as in lowering blood pressure and controling fast or irregular heart rhythms. While Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy needs medical , pacemaker or surgical management. This link may be helpful : http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/cardiomyopathy/DS00519/DSECTION=treatments-and-drugs
