Indicators prooxidant-antioxidant system in blood plasma was determined by biochemical method, indicators of kallikrein-kinin system- by chromatographic method.
Results:
Results: The better status of the prooxidant-antioxidant system and kallikrein-kinin system was observed in patients who received in addition to standard protocol treatment with meldonium.
Conclusion:
Conclusions: Adding to the complex therapy of patients with chronic pancreatitis and stable coronary artery disease of the medicine meldonium helps to improve the prooxidation-antioxidant status and disorders in the kallikrein-kinin system more significantly compared with standard basic therapy.
