Efficacy of combination of trimetazidine (60 mg/day) and enalapril in patients with stable effort angina and metabolic syndrome was assessed in a randomized placebo controlled study of 64 patients. Anti-ischemic activity of trimetazidine was found to be significant. It was most pronounced in patients with abnormal 24-hour blood pressure index, waist/hip circumference ratio >1.0 at the background of satisfactory clinical and laboratory compensation of type 2 diabetes.
