Abstract

Goal. To evaluate the effectiveness of two variants of combined antihyperlipidemic therapy in achieving the target parameters of the blood lipid profile in patients who have undergone ACS.

Material and methods. The study included 60 patients who underwent ACS and did not reach the target LDL values 1 month after discharge from the hospital on the background of atorvastatin monotherapy (60 mg/day). Patients were divided into 3 groups: first Ezetimibe 10 mg/day + Atorvastatin 60 mg/day, the second Vasosponine 400 mg/day + Atorvastatin 60 mg/day, control (KG) – monotherapy with atorvastatin 60 mg/day. The observation time is 6 months.

Results. By the end of the study, a comparable reduction of OHS was achieved in the main groups: in the first group – 30.1%, in the second – 33.0%. Reduction of LDL-C after 6 months of therapy in the first group – 49.2%, in the second – 54.1%; in KG – 21.1%. In the main groups of patients, a significant tendency to increase HDL-C in blood plasma was revealed. Reduction of TG – 10.2% (p = 0.000003) in the first group, in the second and KG – 14.2% (p < 0.001) was shown. In the first group, a significant decrease in KA was revealed – 52.2%, in the second – 54.7%, in KG – 19.2%.

Conclusion. A comparative analysis of the effectiveness of two variants of combined antiatherogenic therapy showed their comparable effectiveness. The combination of ezetimibe + atorvastatin is characterized by a tendency to an earlier onset of hypolipidemic action, while the combination of vasosponine + atorvastatin showed a tendency to a later, but more pronounced hypolipidemic effect.
