Abstract:
Pharmacotherapy for the elderly is currently a pressing issue due to population aging and the increasing prevalence of cardiovascular disease. One of the most serious problems affecting the elderly is the development of cognitive decline due to cerebrovascular pathology. However, elderly patients often have multiple comorbidities, which complicates diagnosis and management and often leads to the development of polypharmacy, which can lead to deterioration in functional status, cognitive impairment, adverse reactions, and drug interactions. Furthermore, elderly patients may experience changes in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics due to anatomical and physiological involutional processes. However, there are relatively few drugs whose efficacy and tolerability have been evaluated specifically in elderly and senile patients. A randomized clinical trial of sequential parenteral and oral therapy with Mexidol in patients with mild cognitive impairment syndrome of vascular origin confirmed the positive effect of this therapy on various domains (cognitive, emotional, autonomic, motor) of chronic cerebrovascular disease, which allows it to be recommended for use in elderly and senile patients.

Key words: vascular cognitive impairment, elderly patient, pharmacotherapy, ethylmethylhydroxypyridine succinate, Mexidol.
