摘要:
The present invention relates to a chronotherapeutically combined pharmaceutical formulation for preventing and treating cardiovascular diseases, which is based on the principle of administering a plurality of drugs at certain time intervals (chronotherapy). Specifically, the combined pharmaceutical formulation comprises a HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, such as simvastatin, and aspirin. Because the combined pharmaceutical formulation was developed based on the principle of administering drugs at certain time intervals, so-called chronotherapy, it shows an excellent effect of preventing or treating cardiovascular disease compared to those of the individual administration and simultaneous administration of the single preparations. Also, it is a once-daily dosage form which increases the medication compliance of patients. Particularly, even though the content of aspirin in the combined pharmaceutical formulation is reduced, the platelet aggregation inhibitory effect of aspirin in the combined pharmaceutical formulation is equal to that of the amount of aspirin used in the prior art, while the aspirin in the combined pharmaceutical formulation shows a antihypertensive effect. In addition, the chronotherapeutically combined pharmaceutical formulation allows the two drugs, which interact with each other, to be stored for a long period of time, and the combined pharmaceutical formulation ensures the human body-safety and efficacy of the two drugs.
