    Abstract:
    In 30 patients with a grave form of ischemic heart disease--unstable angina pectoris, peroral treatment with molsidomin (Corvaton) was carried out in a dose I table of 20 mg, three times daily, in the course of 33 days at an average. The incidence, intensity and duration of stenocardiac paroxysms were followed up as well as the nitroglycerine need- and electrocardiographic changes. The main hemodynamic indices, prior to and post treatment, were also determined. The stenocardiac paroxysms were established to disappear after molsidomin treatment in 30 per cent of the cases as well as reduction of anginose symptomatics in more than 50 per cent in 50 per cent of the patients, reduction of stenocardiac symptomatics to 50 per cent in 3.3 per cent of the cases and no effect in 16.7 per cent of the patients. The hemodynamic molsidomin effect was conditioned by the increase of the volume of the venous vascular system, due to which the venous flow to the heart was diminished--a reduction of the overloaded myocardium and its oxygen needs occurred.
