Description
Summary:Aim. To study influence of mildronate (M) on treatment efficiency of patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD), receiving standard antianginal therapy (AAT)Materials and methods. Double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study was carried out in parallel groups. All patients continued the earlier prescribed AAT without changes. After control period (10-14 days) was over, randomization of patients either to the treatment group (M 500mg twice per day), or to the control group (placebo (Pl) twice per day) was made for 6 weeks therapy. Criterion of treatment efficiency: increase in duration of trial with burden on treadmill (TB), decrease in angina attack frequency (AA) and reduction in nitroglycerin taking (NTT). TB was carried out at the beginning (TB-1), at the end of the control period (TB-2), and at the end of the treatment (TB-3).Results. TB-1 and TB-2 had good reproducibility, their duration didn’t differ. At the end of the treatment additionally with M, growth in duration of TB-3 (p=0,002) was registered, while there was no growth of TB duration with the Pl treatment (p=0,07). During the treatment decrease in AA number both with M (p=0,002), and with Pl (p=0,02) was noted. With M treatment decrease in NTT treatment (p=0.02) was observed, while NTT with Pl didn’t change (p=0,7). Number of side effects, registered with M and Pl, didn’t differ.Conclusion. Mildronate provides additional benefits for patients with IHD with stable burden angina, when they do not reach desired effect with the prescribed AAT.
