Abstract
Statin therapy is the cornerstone of anti-atherosclerotic treatment, and it considered obligatory in the secondary prevention of atherosclerotic diseases. Rosuvastatin is well-known and efficacious lipid-lowering agent. Generic drugs are more frequently used instead of its ancestors. Generic rosuvastatin forms have been aproved recently to the Central European market, but their safety and efficacy have not been previously examined in cerebrovascular patient populations. Patients and methods: 109 patients with documented ischaemic cerebrovascular events were included in our study. 20 mg generic rosuvastatin significantly decreased total cholesterol (5.47 vs. 3.88 mmol/l, p
