Summary:
Purpose of the study. To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of consistent therapy with the drug Mexidol intravenously and Mexidol Forte 250 orally in patients with chronic brain ischemia.

Material and methods. In the international multicenteric randomized double-blind-controlled study, 318 patients with a chemical place from 40 to 90 years are included in 15 clinical centers, located in the territory of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Uzbekistan. Patients were randomized in 2 groups, patients of the 1st group received Mexidol intravenously 500 mg once a day for 14 days, then Mexidol Forte 250 was prescribed orally 250 mg 3 times a day for the next 60 days; Patients of the 2nd group received placebo in a similar mode. As the primary criterion for effectiveness, the average value of the change in the point on the MOCA scale was chosen at the stage of completion of the study by the patient compared to the initial level.

Results. Upon completion of the study between the 1st and 2nd groups, reliable differences were identified by the result of the MOCA scale (p <0.000001). The lower boundary of 95% of the trust interval for the difference in the average indicators of the main criterion for the effectiveness between the 1st and 2nd groups was 1.51, which allows the higher efficiency of the use of Mexidol. According to the secondary endpoints, a statistically significant advantage over the placebo at the final visit was achieved by the following parameters: a test of digital symbol replacements, an asthenia assessment scale, a Bek anxiety scale, a tineta questionnaire, a Tinetti scale, a SF-36 questionnaire (psychological component of health), and a psychological component of health). CGI scale (a general clinical impression scale). The comparable nature of the safety profile of Mexidol and placebo is established.

Conclusion. The validity and expediency of the consistent use of Mexidol and Mexidol Forte 250 in the treatment of patients with chemicals are demonstrated.

Summary:
the new coronavirus infection Covid-19 is characterized by high mortality and the absence of effective etiotropic therapy. Activation of oxidative stress may be one of the links in the pathogenesis of organ damage against the background of this infection. Target. Assessment of the ability of the drug Mexidol ® to influence the speed of clinical improvement in pneumonia in hospitalized patients with a new Covid-19 coronaviral infection. The study includes 62 patients over the age of 18 years with a confirmed new coronavirus infection COVID-19 according to computed tomography (CT) of the lungs (stages KT1, KT2, KT3) and studies by the polymerase chain reaction from the nasopharynx and oropharynx on the SARS virus RNA SARS COV-2. After randomization, patients of the 1st group received infusion of Mexidol at a dose of 1000 mg/day for 7 days, patients of the 2nd group-infusion of isotonic sodium chloride solution. Compared to the control group in patients who received therapy with Mexidol, a reliably more pronounced decrease in body temperature, and a tendency to reduce the severity of shortness of breath were noted. In the Mexidol group, the concentration of superoxidsmutase has not changed, while in the control group there was a tendency to reduce it, the C-reactive protein decreased 2.2 times more than in the control group (p = 0.09). The tendency to a more rapid decrease in ferritin in the active intervention group has been identified. Mexidol therapy can have a positive effect on the clinical manifestations and the severity of laboratory-inflammatory syndrome in patients with a new Covid-19 coronaviral infection. Key words: new coronavirus infection Covid-19, oxidative stress, Mexidol.

Summary:
Purpose of the study. Evaluate the effectiveness and safety of two dosing modes of the drug Mexidol tablets covered with a film shell, 125 mg (NPK Farmasoft LLC, Russia), compared with placebo, in children with attention deficit (ADHD) from 6 to 12 years. Material and methods. The study was carried out in 14 clinical centers of the Russian Federation as a multicenter randomized double-blind, placbo-controlled double-controlled in 3 parallel groups. The study was attended by 333 children aged 6 to 12 years with a confirmed diagnosis of ADHD, established in accordance with the criteria of the ICD-10 and DSM-5. After screening (up to 14 days), patients were randomized in 3 groups in a ratio of 1: 1: 1: Mexidol 125 mg 2 times a day, Mexidol 125 mg 1 time per day+placebo and placebo. The duration of treatment in all groups was 42 days. The study was completed by 332 children. The dynamics of the state was evaluated by the scales of the ADHD assessment and related disorders. Results. Statistically significant changes in the amount of the total score on the subx “Inattentiveness”, “Hyperactivity impulsivity” of the ADHG assessment scale through 6 weeks of therapy in all three groups of the study (P <0.05). At the same time, between the groups of Mexol 125 mg 1 time per day+placebo and placebo, as well as between Mexol groups 125 mg 2 times a day and placebo, expressed statistically significant differences were observed (for the PP: P = 0.000308 and P = 0.000024 Accordingly, for the population FAS: P = 0.000198 and P = 0.000024, respectively), which indicates the superiority of the therapy with Mexidol. According to most secondary criteria for effectiveness (average changes in points on the “Inattention” Snap-IV scale, the average change in scores “Hyperactivity impulsiveness” of the SNAP-IV scale, the average change in the cones index of the SNAP-IV scale, the average change in the value On the ADHD Rating Scale IV scale, assessments on the scale of the general clinical impression of the severity of ADHD, estimates on the general clinical impression scale - improvement) were also obtained statistically significant differences (p <0.05) when comparing the treatment of Mexido with placebo. The results of a statistical analysis of the frequency of the occurrence of undesirable phenomena, indicators of laboratory tests, and a physically examination demonstrate the absence of significant differences between compared groups in basic safety indicators. Conclusion. The treatment regimen with Mexol, tablets covered with a film shell, 125 mg 2 times a day, showed an advantage over Mexol's scheme tablets covered with a film shell, 125 mg once a day+placebo. A comparable nature of the security profiles of the studied dosing of the drug Mexidol and placebo was obtained.

Summary:
in a review article, modern approaches to testing and registration of reproduced (generic) drugs are considered. The history of the formation of a methodology for research of reproduced drugs and modern legislation of the Russian Federation is presented. The stages of confirmation of the equivalence of original and reproduced drugs are described: pharmaceutical equivalence, bioequivalence and therapeutic equivalence. Methods of evaluating bioequivalence as a basic study in the registration of reproduced drugs are analyzed in detail. On the example of the original domestic neuroprotector of the drug Mexidol (ethylmethylhydroxypyrididine of succinate) and its generiks described how legislative acts are implemented in practice. It is concluded that not all reproduced drugs can be interchangeable with the original drug.

Summary:
The review discusses the interchangeability of drugs (drugs), approaches to registering original and reproduced drugs and types of equivalence, as well as problems with generics in clinical practice. The results of pharmacoepidemiological studies, widely leading in recent years, indicate an insufficient study of the influence of reproduced drugs on remote outcomes of chronic diseases, including mortality. The long-term economic prospect of the use of reproduced drugs remains unclear. The main reasons for the difference between the original and reproduced drugs include differences in the methods of synthesis of active substances, as well as as part of auxiliary substances and impurities. Comparative studies of the therapeutic equivalence of generics with the original and are carried out quite rarely and often suffer from methodological disadvantages, which does not guarantee comparable efficiency and safety of such drugs. In this regard, the automatic replacement of drugs containing the same active substance, without the participation of the attending physician, should be avoided.

Keywords: generics; bioequivalence; pharmaceutical equivalence; therapeutic equivalence; interchangeability.

Summary:
Purpose of the study. To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of prolonged sequential therapy with Mexidol with a hemisphere ischemic stroke in acute and early recovery periods in patients of various age groups.

Material and methods. The study is an additional analysis of age groups among 150 patients who took part in a randomized double blind multicenter placebo-controlled in parallel groups of the epic study. The entire study of the study (62 men and 88 women) was divided into subgroups by age: under 60 years old, 60–75 years old, 76–90 years. Also, all participants in the study were divided into 2 populations: ITT (Intent to Treat Population, patients who received at least one dose of the drug/placebo drug) and PP (Per Protocol Population, patients who received the drug in accordance with the research protocol). The results were evaluated on the modified Rankin scale (MSHR) at the end of the course of therapy, the Bartel index, the Bek depression scale, and the European questionnaire for assessing the quality of life.

Results. The effectiveness of Mexidol on all the scales used did not differ depending on age. At the time of the end of the therapy, the average MSHR score was lower in patients 76–90 years (in both populations) compared to placebo (p <0.001). The dynamics of reducing the average score in MSHR (1-5th visits) was more pronounced in patients of 60–75 years (p = 0.025), including patients with diabetes. In patients 76–90 years old and patients with diabetes mellitus compared to placebo, the severity of cognitive-affective symptoms of depression (p = 0.049 and p = 0.02, respectively), the share of patients with lack of problems with everyday affairs, increased statistically significant (P = P = P = P = P = P = P = P = P = P = P. 0.007 and p = 0.02, respectively). In patients with diabetes, the level of everyday activity (p = 0.023) has also increased statistically significantly significantly increased and the quality of life has improved (p = 0.045). There were no reliable differences in the frequency of unwanted phenomena in all studied groups.

Conclusion. It is recommended that the use of Mexidol in the acute and early recovery periods of ischemic stroke in all age groups, including patients with diabetes mellitus.

Key words: ischemic stroke, Mexidol, ethylmethylhydroxypyridine succinate, effectiveness and safety, ischemic stroke, acute period, early recovery period, epic.

Resume by resolution:

  • The brain of AH is one of the target organs , the first symptoms of the lesion of which are vascular cognitive impairment (SKN).
  • It is necessary to carry out neuropsychological testing to identify and assess the severity of SKN. The management and examination of patients with AG is carried out by the primary outpatient doctor.
  • For effective treatment of SKN, antihypertensional therapy is not enough, a neuroprotection program is needed.
  • The choice of a neuroprotector should be based on the evidence base and good tolerance of the drug. In order to reduce polypragmasis, it is necessary to focus on drugs with a multimodal action mechanism ( Mexidol ® ).
  • The recommended scheme of sequential therapy with Mexidol, according to the results of clinical studies, including randomized, 200-500 mg/day intravenously or intramuscularly for 14 days with a transition to a periral form, 250 mg 3 times/day for 60 days.
  • Neuroprotection should serve as an integral part of patients with AG. It is recommended to supplement the algorithm for drug treatment of patients with hypertension by turning on ethylmethylhydroxypyridine of succinate (Mexidol ® ) in the clinical recommendations “Arterial hypertension in adults” (i10/i11/i12/i13/i15, according to ICD-10).

Summary:
arterial hypertension (AH) is currently a very urgent problem of modern society. Its prevalence among an adult population is an average of 30–45%, significantly increasing in older age groups. In addition, due to the expected increase in life expectancy, an increase in the number of patients with AH is predicted. From the point of view of clinical significance, special attention to AH is due to a wide range of complications caused by the disease and involved target organs, including the heart, blood vessels, kidneys, organ of vision and brain. Several large population studies showed that the higher the office blood pressure (blood pressure), the higher the risk of stroke, coronary heart disease, heart failure, peripheral arterial diseases, and the terminal stage of renal failure and sudden death. AH is also recognized as one of the pathogenetic factors of the development of vascular cognitive impairment (KN) and Alzheimer's disease. However, before achieving the final stage - dementia, patients are sequentially intermediate stages between the normal level of cognitive functioning and the very difficult KN, as the cognitive status develops progressively, gradually violating the quality of life and negatively affecting the adaptation of a person in various fields of daily activities. There are many studies that clearly established the relationship between increased blood pressure and KN and demonstrated that the latter are one of the earliest manifestations of brain damage against the background of hypertension.

Summary:
Annotation. Chronic brain ischemia (Khim) is one of the most common neurological pathologies. Its development is affected by many factors, among which arterial hypertension (AH) occupies a special place. Him contributes to cognitive impairment, negatively affects the quality of life and leads to motor and psycho -emotional disorders. In the aspect of the therapy of this condition, an important role belongs to neuroprotectors and, in particular, the use of ethylmethylhydroxypyridine of succinate (Mexol ® , NPK Pharmasoft LLC, Russia), which has a multimodal effect and confirms its high efficiency in a large number of clinical studies. The evidence base of ethylmethylhydroxypyridine of the succinate, including in the study of Memo, indicates the particularly high effectiveness of the drug among patients with Khim and AG: they have Mexol ® significantly improves cognitive functions, reduces the level of anxiety and asthenia and improves the quality of life. With this in mind, the drug can be recommended for use in complex therapy of chemicals, especially in patients with AG.

Summary:
Purpose of the study. Assessment of the effect of Mexidol, as part of the complex therapy of heart failure for 10 weeks on cognitive status, quality parameters, asthenic syndrome and anxiety level in patients with XN II-III functional class (according to NYHA classification). Material and methods. An open randomized study included 60 comorbide patients with coronary heart disease (coronary heart disease) and stable chronic heart failure (COL) with cognitive disorders (KN) ≤24 points on the Montreal scale for evaluating cognitive functions (MOCA). The average age of patients was 73.4 ± 8.6 years, 53% - male, the average release fraction of 43.5 ± 10.6%. 30 patients were included in the standard therapy group with the additional purpose of Mexidol (500 mg intravenously dropped 1 time per day for 14 days, then 250 mg 3 times a day 8 weeks) and 30 patients in a standard therapy group. Initially and at the end of the study, an assessment of the effect of therapy on the cognitive status of patients on the Montreal scale of assessment of cognitive functions (Mosa), anxiety level on the Bek scale, the degree of severity and the dynamics of asthenic syndrome on the subjective scale of astheny assessment (MFI-20), and health profiles according to the questionnaire was carried out EQ-5D-5L and quality parameters based on the results of the Essence on the Minnesotsky (MlHFQ), Kansas (Kansas City CardiOMYOPATHY QUESTIONNAIRA, KCCQ) and the SF36 questionnaire “Evaluation of the quality of life”. Results.

Summary:
the new coronavirus infection Covid-19 is characterized by high mortality and the absence of effective etiotropic therapy. Activation of oxidative stress may be one of the links in the pathogenesis of organ damage against the background of this infection. Target. Assessment of the ability of the drug Mexidol ® to influence the speed of clinical improvement in pneumonia in hospitalized patients with a new Covid-19 coronaviral infection. The study includes 62 patients over the age of 18 years with a confirmed new coronavirus infection COVID-19 according to computed tomography (CT) of the lungs (stages KT1, KT2, KT3) and studies by the polymerase chain reaction from the nasopharynx and oropharynx on the SARS virus RNA SARS COV-2. After randomization, patients of the 1st group received infusion of Mexidol at a dose of 1000 mg/day for 7 days, patients of the 2nd group-infusion of isotonic sodium chloride solution. Compared to the control group in patients who received therapy with Mexidol, a reliably more pronounced decrease in body temperature, and a tendency to reduce the severity of shortness of breath were noted. In the Mexidol group, the concentration of superoxidsmutase has not changed, while in the control group there was a tendency to reduce it, the C-reactive protein decreased 2.2 times more than in the control group (p = 0.09). The tendency to a more rapid decrease in ferritin in the active intervention group has been identified. Mexidol therapy can have a positive effect on the clinical manifestations and the severity of laboratory-inflammatory syndrome in patients with a new Covid-19 coronaviral infection.
