Formation of atherosclerotic and calcified plaque begins and grows up not only beneath the endothelium (intimae), but also in the adventitial subepithelium on the coronary arteries.
A new innovative combined drug (polypill) certainly releases, regresses and prevents of formation of the atherosclerotic and calcified plaque of arteries.
