Directly affecting the cardiomyocytes and neurons of the brain, optimizes their metabolism and function. The cytoprotective effect is due to an increase in the energy potential, activation of oxidative decarboxylation and rationalization of oxygen consumption (increased aerobic glycolysis and blockade of fatty acid oxidation). Supports myocardial contractility, prevents intracellular depletion of ATP and phosphocreatinin. Under conditions of acidosis, it normalizes the functioning of the ion channels of the membranes, prevents the accumulation of calcium and sodium in cardiomyocytes, and normalizes the intracellular content of potassium ions. Reduces intracellular acidosis and phosphate content due to myocardial ischemia and reperfusion. Prevents the damaging effect of free radicals, preserves the integrity of cell membranes, prevents the activation of neutrophils in the ischemic area, increases the duration of the electrical potential, reduces the release of creatine phosphokinase from cells and the severity of ischemic myocardial damage. With angina, it reduces the frequency of attacks (reduces the consumption of nitrates), after 2 weeks of treatment, the tolerance to physical activity increases, blood pressure drops decrease. Improves hearing and vestibular test results in patients, reduces dizziness and tinnitus. In case of vascular pathology of the eye, it restores the functional activity of the retina
Mechanism of action
Trimetazidine prevents a decrease in the intracellular concentration of ATP by maintaining the energy metabolism of cells in a state of hypoxia. Thus, the drug ensures the normal functioning of the membrane ion channels, the transmembrane transfer of potassium and sodium ions, and the preservation of cellular homeostasis.
Trimetazidine inhibits the oxidation of fatty acids by selectively inhibiting the enzyme 3-ketoacyl-CoA-thiolase (3-CAT) of the mitochondrial long-chain isoform of fatty acids, which leads to increased glucose oxidation and accelerated glycolysis with glucose oxidation, which determines the protection of the myocardium from ischemia. Switching energy metabolism from fatty acid oxidation to glucose oxidation is the basis of the pharmacological properties of trimetazidine.
It has been experimentally confirmed that trimetazidine has the following properties:
- supports the energy metabolism of the heart and sensorineural tissues during ischemia,
- reduces the severity of intracellular acidosis and changes in the transmembrane ion flow that occur during ischemia,
- reduces the level of migration and infiltration of polynuclear neutrophils in ischemic and reperfused heart tissues,
- reduces the size of myocardial damage,
- does not have a direct effect on the hemodynamic parameters.
In patients with angina, trimetazidine:
- increases the coronary reserve, thereby slowing the onset of exercise-induced ischemia, starting on the 15th day of therapy,
- limits fluctuations in blood pressure caused by physical exertion, without significant changes in heart rate,
- significantly reduces the frequency of angina attacks and the need to take short-acting nitroglycerin,
- improves the contractile function of the left ventricle in patients with ischemic dysfunction.
The results of the conducted clinical studies confirmed the efficacy and safety of trimetazidine in patients with stable angina, both in monotherapy and as part of combination therapy with insufficient effect of other antianginal drugs.
In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial involving 426 patients with stable angina (TRIMPOL-II), the addition of trimetazidine (60 mg/day) to metoprolol 100 mg/day (50 mg 2 times/day) for 12 weeks statistically significantly improved the results of stress tests and clinical symptoms compared with placebo: the total duration of stress tests was 20.1 s, p=0.023, the total time to perform the load was 0.54 METs, p=0.001, the time to the development of ST segment depression by 1 mm — 33.4 s, p=0.003, the time to the development of an angina attack — 33.9 c, p<0.001, the number of angina attacks per week — -0.73, p=0.014 and the consumption of short — acting nitrates per week — -0.63, p=0.032, without hemodynamic changes.
In a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial involving 223 patients with stable angina (Sellier), the addition of trimetazidine at a dose of 35 mg (2 times / day) to atenolol therapy at a dose of 50 mg (1 time/day) for 8 weeks led to an increase in the time to the development of ST-segment ischemic depression by 1 mm ( 34.4 s, p=0.03) during stress tests in a subgroup of patients (n=173), compared with placebo, 12 hours after taking the drug. This difference was also shown for the time of development of angina attacks (p=0.049). There were no significant differences between the groups for other secondary endpoints (total duration of load tests, total load time, and clinical endpoints).
In a three-month randomized, double-blind study involving 1,962 patients with stable angina (Vasco), trimetazidine in two dosages (70 and 140 mg/day) compared to placebo was added to atenolol therapy 50 mg / day. In the general population, including patients with both no symptoms and symptoms of angina, trimetazidine did not demonstrate benefits for ergometric (total duration of stress tests, time to ST-segment ischemic depression by 1 mm, and time to angina attack) and clinical endpoints.
However, in a retrospective analysis in a subgroup of patients with angina symptoms (n=1574), trimetazidine (140 mg) significantly improved the overall load test time ( 23.8 s compared to 13.1 c for placebo, p=0.001) and the time to angina attack ( 46.3 s compared to 32.5 for placebo, p=0.005).
It has an antihypoxic effect. Trimetazidine prevents a decrease in the intracellular concentration of ATP by maintaining the energy metabolism of cells in a state of hypoxia.

- reduces the level of migration and infiltration of polynuclear neutrophils in ischemic and reperfused heart tissues,
- reduces the size of myocardial damage,
- does not have a direct effect on the hemodynamic parameters.
In patients with angina pectoris:
- increases the coronary reserve, thereby slowing the onset of exercise-induced ischemia, starting on the 15th day of therapy,
- limits fluctuations in blood pressure caused by physical exertion, without significant changes in heart rate,
- reduces the frequency of angina attacks and the need to take short-acting nitroglycerin,

Special groups
Patients over 75 years of age. Patients over 75 years of age may experience increased trimetazidine exposure due to age-related decline in renal function. A special study was conducted in a population of patients over 75 years of age when taking trimetazidine tablets of 35 mg 2 times a day. The analysis performed by the kinetic population method showed an average twofold increase in plasma exposure in patients with severe renal insufficiency (creatinine Cl less than 30 ml / min) compared to patients with creatinine Cl more than 60 ml/min.
