Popis: Rationale. Coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common cardiovascular disease, being responsible for the largest number of deaths and disabilities. The use of lipid-lowering drugs is one of the most important aspects of pharmacological rehabilitation of patients with CAD.Objective of the work. Study the features of pharmacological rehabilitation of patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) using a combination therapy of lipid-lowering Ezetimibe and Rosuvastatin. Materials and methods. 70 patients with coronary artery disease with a clinical picture of moderate CHF and concomitant type 2 diabetes were enrolled in the study. The patients enrolled in the study were recommended to change their lifestyle, including quitting smoking, increasing physical activity, and adhering to a cholesterol-free diet. After a month, the patients were divided into 2 groups of 35 people each by a simple randomization method. The comparison group (n = 35) received a combination of Rosuvastatin 20 mg/day and Ezetimibe 10 mg/day, the control group (n = 35) received only Rosuvastatin 20 mg/day. The duration of the study was 12 months. The follow-up visits were scheduled at 1, 3, 6 and 12 months after they started taking drugs.Results. At the end of the study, there were no statistically significant differences between the study groups in the number of adverse cardiovascular events (14.3% vs 20.0%, respectively, p = 0.751). There were differences in the total number of hospitalizations caused by cardiovascular diseases (14.3% vs 40%, respectively, p = 0.032).Conclusions. The prescription of combination lipidemic therapy with Rosuvastatin at a dose of 20 mg/day and Ezetimibe at a dose of 10 mg/day results in decreased hospitalizations caused by cardiovascular diseases.
