Clinical and pharmacological group: A drug that normalizes myocardial metabolism, reduces tissue hypoxia
Pharmaco-therapeutic group: Antihypoxic agent
pharmachologic effect
Trimetazidine has an antihypoxic effect. By directly affecting the cardiomyocytes and neurons of the brain, trimetazidine optimizes their metabolism and function. The cytoprotective effect of trimetazidine is due to an increase in energy potential, activation of oxidative decarboxylation and rationalization of oxygen consumption (increased aerobic glycolysis and blockade of fatty acid oxidation). Trimetazidine inhibits fatty acid oxidation due to the enzyme 3-ketoacyl-CoA-thiolase (3-CAT) of the mitochondrial long-chain fatty acid isoform, which leads to increased glucose oxidation and accelerated glycolysis with glucose oxidation, which is responsible for the protection of the myocardium from ischemia. Switching energy metabolism from fatty acid oxidation to glucose oxidation underlies the pharmacological properties of trimetazidine.
Trimetazidine maintains myocardial contractility, prevents a decrease in the intracellular content of ATP and phosphocreatine.
Under conditions of acidosis, it normalizes the functioning of membrane ion channels, prevents the accumulation of calcium and sodium ions in cardiomyocytes, and normalizes the intracellular content of potassium ions.
Trimetazidine reduces intracellular acidosis and increased phosphate levels due to myocardial ischemia and reperfusion. It prevents the damaging action of free radicals, preserves the integrity of cell membranes, prevents the activation of neutrophils in the ischemic zone, increases the duration of the electric potential, reduces the release of CPK from cells and the severity of ischemic damage to the myocardium.
Trimetazidine reduces dizziness and tinnitus. In case of vascular pathology of the eye, it improves the functional activity of the retina.
It has been experimentally confirmed that trimetazidine has the following properties:
supports the energy metabolism of the heart and neurosensory tissues during ischemia;
supports myocardial contractility, prevents intracellular depletion of adenosine triphosphoric acid and creatine phosphate;
under conditions of acidosis normalizes the functioning of ion channels of membranes, prevents the accumulation of calcium and sodium ions in cardiomyocytes, normalizes the intracellular concentration of potassium ions;
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;
prevents the damaging action of free radicals, preserves the integrity of cell membranes, prevents the activation of neutrophils in the ischemic zone, increases the duration of the electric potential, reduces the release of CPK from cells and the severity of ischemic damage to the myocardium;
reduces the size of myocardial damage;
does not directly affect hemodynamic parameters.
In patients with angina pectoris, trimetazidine:
increases the coronary reserve, thereby slowing the onset of exercise-induced ischemia, starting from the 15th day of therapy;
limits fluctuations in blood pressure caused by physical activity, 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 clinical studies have confirmed the efficacy and safety of using trimetazidine in patients with stable angina pectoris both in monotherapy and as part of complex therapy with an insufficient effect of other antianginal drugs.
Pharmacokinetics
Suction
After taking the drug inside, trimetazidine is rapidly and almost completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Bioavailability is 90%. Food intake does not affect the bioavailability of trimetazidine. The time to reach Cmax in blood plasma is 5 hours. Over 24 hours, the concentration of trimetazidine in blood plasma remains at a level exceeding 75% of the concentration determined after 11 hours.
Distribution
Plasma protein binding is about 16% in vitro. Vd is 4.8 L / kg, which suggests good diffusion of the distribution of trimetazidine in tissues. Easily penetrates histohematogenous barriers. Css is reached after 60 hours.
Withdrawal
Trimetazidine is excreted from the body mainly in the urine (about 60% - unchanged). T1 / 2 about 7 hours
Pharmacokinetics in special patient groups
Renal clearance of trimetazidine directly correlates with CC, hepatic clearance decreases with age.
The exposure of trimetazidine was on average increased 2.4 times in patients with moderate renal insufficiency (CC 30-60 ml / min), and on average 4 times in patients with severe renal insufficiency (CC less than 30 ml / min) compared with healthy volunteers with normal renal function. No safety features were found in this patient population compared to the general population.
In patients over the age of 65, T1 / 2 is about 12 hours. In patients over 75, an increased exposure of trimetazidine may be observed due to age-related decline in renal function. No safety features were found in patients over 75 years of age compared to the general population.

As a precautionary measure, it is not recommended to use TrimectalЃ MB during pregnancy.
There are no data on the excretion of trimetazidine or its metabolites in breast milk. The risk to the newborn / child cannot be excluded. You should not use the drug TrimectalЃ MB during breastfeeding.
Application for violations of liver function
The drug should be prescribed with caution to patients with severe hepatic impairment.
Application for impaired renal function
The drug is contraindicated in severe renal failure (CC less than 30 ml / min).
With caution should be given to patients with renal drug moderate impairment (creatinine clearance of 30-60 ml / min), it is necessary to reduce the dosing frequency to 1 times / day (in the morning, during lunch time).
Application in children
Contraindicated in children and adolescents under 18 years of age (efficacy and safety have not been established).
Use in elderly patients
The drug should be prescribed with caution to elderly patients (over 75 years old).
In elderly patients, it is necessary to reduce the frequency of admission to 1 time / day (in the morning, during breakfast).
special instructions
If you miss one or more doses of TrimectalЃ MB, you should not take a higher dose in the next dose.
TrimectalЃ MV is not intended for relieving angina attacks and is not indicated for the initial course of therapy for unstable angina pectoris or myocardial infarction at the prehospital stage or in the first days of hospitalization.
In the event of an attack of angina pectoris, the treatment (drug therapy or revascularization procedure) should be reviewed and adapted.
Trimetazidine can cause or worsen the symptoms of parkinsonism (tremor, akinesia, increased tone), therefore, patients should be regularly monitored, especially the elderly. In cases of doubt, patients should be referred to a neurologist for appropriate examination. If movement disorders appear, such as parkinsonism symptoms, restless legs syndrome, tremors, unsteadiness in the Romberg position and unsteadiness of gait, trimetazidine should be finally canceled. Such cases are rare, and symptoms usually disappear after discontinuation of therapy: in most patients, within 4 months after discontinuation of the drug. If the symptoms of parkinsonism persist for more than 4 months after discontinuation of the drug, a neurologist should be consulted. Falls may occur,associated with instability in the Romberg position and unsteadiness of gait or a pronounced decrease in blood pressure, especially in patients taking antihypertensive drugs.
Care should be taken to prescribe the drug TrimectalЃ MB to patients who may have increased exposure to trimetazidine (patients with moderate renal insufficiency (CC 30-60 ml / min), as well as elderly patients over 75 years old).
Due to the peculiarities of the dosage form of the drug TrimectalЃ MV, modified-release film-coated tablets, the tablet framework of the drug may not dissolve in the intestine and be excreted in the feces, which does not affect the therapeutic efficacy of the drug.
Influence on the ability to drive vehicles and use mechanisms
Given the possibility of the development of adverse reactions from the central nervous system when taking trimetazidine, care should be taken when driving vehicles and other technical devices that require increased concentration of attention and speed of psychomotor reactions.
