title: Use of lipid-modulating drugs in complicated course of coronary heart disease.
abstract: We present the results of the study of lipid-modulating drugs (pravastatin, atorvastatin, simvastatin, and fibrate gemfibrozil) in complicated coronary heart disease (acute coronary syndrome without ST elevation, chronic heart failure. In acute coronary syndrome statins produced a positive effect on some studied parameters, while in heart failure only the safety of short-term therapy with statins was demonstrated.
