H. Schmutzler et al., INFLUENCE OF MOLSIDOMINE ON THE FIBRINOLY TIC CAPACITY AND OTHER HEMOSTATIC PARAMETERS IN PATIENTS WITH CORONARY HEART-DISEASE, Herz, Kreislauf, 27(12), 1995, pp. 423-427
31 patients with chronic coronary heart disease were studied in a rand
omized, placebo-controlled trial. The effect of a single dose of 8 mg
molsidomine (versus placebo) on different parameters of the coagulatio
n and particularly on the fibrinolytic system was studied. Whereas t-P
A, PAI-1, PT and PTT showed no differences, the fibrinogen level was s
ignificantly decreased due to molsidomine. Therefore, beside the antii
schemic in dication a further therapeutic aspect is given for the prim
ary and secondary prevention of coronary heart disease.
