Dear Mou,
It is better to close ASD not to have complications in the future. If the anatomy of your ASD permits to close it with device percutaneously, it is the best way, as the complications are less. The choice of the device depends on many factors and the type of the ASD. There will be no need to take any medications after the procedure.
Take care
