Low Dose Rosuvastatin Plus Ezetimibe Versus High-dose Rosuvastatin in AMI
Condition(s) studied
Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)
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.
