[Clinical and hemodynamic efficiency of dilatrend treatment in patients with dilatation cardiomyopathy].

Abstract

In present study we describe the clinical case of successful treatment of dilatation cardiomyophaty based on dilatrend using. 32 years old patient with acute heart failure and rhythm dysfunction was active user of alcohol since 1993. At the beginning of treatment 25 mg of dilatrend twice per day was used. The dose was increased monthly by 2.5 mg. After 4 months of treatment clinical signs of disease were eliminated at the daily dose 50 mg of dilatrend.
