<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effect of compound Danshen Droplet-pill (DS) combined with trimetazidine (TMZ) in treating senile unstable angina pectoris (SUAP).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>One hundred and twenty patients with SUAP were eaually and randomly divided into 2 groups, the treated group and the control group. Changes of angina, occurrence of arrhythmia, myocardial infarction and sudden death, myocardial ischemia in ECG and partial indexes of heart function were observed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The total effective rate in the treated group was 78.3%, while that in the control group was 53.3%, comparison of the two groups showed significant difference (P < 0.05). The incidence rate of arrhythmia in the two groups was 18.2% and 30.0% respectively and that of acute myocardial infarction and sudden death was 0 and 5.0% respectively, also showed significant difference between them (P < 0.05). Condition of myocardial ischemia revealed in ECG and partial indexes of heart function in the treated group were all improved to certain extent.
