Material and methods. In total, 104 patients with stable effort angina (SEA) and AH, including 52 subjects receiving combination standard antihypertensive and anti6ischemic therapy, and 52 also receiving trimetazidine, were included in the study. Cardiac patients were examined according to medical standard OST 91500.11.0002-2002. Quality of life (QoL) was assessed with a special questionnaire, «Quality of Life Index Cardiac Version IV».
Results. Increased clinical effectiveness and improved QoL was observed among SEA and AH patients receiving combination therapy including slow6release trimetazidine.
Conclusion. Adding trimetazidine MB to combination therapy of SEA and AH patients improved the quality of pathogenetic treatment.
