Abstract

Aim. To assess duration of a clinical response and tolerance ofstructum in patients with low back pain
(LBP) and comorbid cardiovascular disease.
Material and methods. 25 patients with primary LBP and coronary heart disease (n = 13) and/or
essential arterial hypertension (n = 18) were examined and treated for 6 months with structum.
Results. To the end of the first treatment months structum significantly relieved pain intensity, spinal
motility, increased exercise tolerance. Excellent and good response to structum were observed in 71%
patients, no response was in 29%. Tolerance of the drug was good in 23 (92%) patients. The effect
persisted for 3 months. СНГ) characteristics did not change while arterial pressure went down noticiably.
Conclusion. Structum is highly effective in the treatment of LBP. Its long-term intake had no effect on
CHD.
