Ezetimibe 10mg + Rosuvastatin 5mg: Initial use of 10mg of ezetimibe combined with 5 mg of rosuvastatin

Rosuvastatin 20mg: 20mg of Rosuvastatin as a standard treatment for AMI patients

Study summary

Combination therapy of rosuvastatin 5mg and ezetimibe 10 mg showed similar achievement rate in decreasing LDL cholesterol level by 50% as single use of rosuvastatin 20 mg.

This trial aims to prove non-inferiority of concomitant usage of low dose rosuvastatin and ezetimibe among patients with acute myocardial infarction who went through percutaneous coronary intervention at decreasing major adverse cardiac events compared to the efficacy of single use of high dose rosuvastatin.
