description Aim. To study hypolipidemic effectiveness and safety of generic lovastatin (Cardiostatin®). Material and methods. This open, cooperative study included 90 patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and hypercholesterolemia (<10 mmol/l). All patients received Cardiostatin® in the dose of 20 mg/d, increased up to 40-80 mg/d, if needed. Dynamics of total cholesterol (TCH), low-density lipoprotein CH (LDL-CH), high-density lipoprotein CH (HDL-CH), triglycerides, hepatic enzymes, and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels was studied. Results. Cardiostatin® improved lipid profile to the same extent as original lovastatin. Target TCH level (<2,5 mmol/l) was achieved in 68,8% of the patients. In participants with initially increased CRP level, it had significantly reduced. Conclusion. Cardiostatin® demonstrated good hypolipidemic effects, at the same time reducing increased CRP level. Cardiostatin can be recommended for dyslipidemia and atherosclerotic pathology treatment.
