FIELD: medicine, pharmacology, biochemistry, pharmacy.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to preparations reducing blood cholesterol level. Lovastatin, pravastatin, simvastatin, mevastatin, atorvastatin and their derivatives and analogs known as inhibitors of HMG-CoA-reductase are used as anti-hypercholesterolemic agents. Above mentioned active substances can be destabilized as result of effect of environment and their destruction can be accelerated in interaction with other pharmaceutical agents, such as excipients, binding agents, lubricating agents, substances promoting to slipping and disintegrating agents. Therefore, pharmaceutical components and a method for preparing a pharmaceutical preparation must be taken thoroughly to avoid above said undesirable interactions and reactions. Invention relates to inhibitor of HMG-CoA-reductase that stabilized by formation of a homogenous composition with buffer substance or an alkalinizing substance. This homogenous composition is used as an active substance in pharmaceutical preparation used for treatment of hypercholesterolemia and hyperlipidemia. Invention enhances the enhancement of stability and homogeneity of the preparation.
EFFECT: improved and valuable pharmaceutical properties of composition.
