Trimetazidine is a cardioprotective and anti-ischemic 3-ketoacyl Co A thiolase inhibitor acting generally in its hydrochloride and dihydrochloride salts form. The active agent is available in 20 mg film coated tablet and 35 mg modified release tablet forms on the market.
Trimetazidine is a well water soluble powder in white or whitish colour. Trimetazidine is easily absorbed by the organism and its half-life is approximately six hours. Therefore, it is recommended to use 3 times in a day in order to provide an effective treatment. However, due to dysmnesia, the patients cannot take the required dose of the drug and therefore using a drug 3 times in a day reduces efficiency of the treatment and increases side and toxic effects.
In other aspect, the risks of ischemia and fatal myocardial infarction caused by ischemia are mostly seen in patients at nights and usually in the small hours. Therefore, 24 hour-sustained release active agent is quite important in ischemia prophylaxis for treatment.
