During the observation period, two undesirable events chronologically associated with taking the drug were recorded During the study, none of the patients was excluded from the program due to the development of side effects and none of the patients refused to take the drug. We did not fnd any statistically signifcant increase in the incidence of cardiac pathology in patients taking the study drug, nor worsening of the already existing symptoms on the background of taking the drug for six months. Te observed growth trends in the level of blood creatinine a give grounds to recommend monitoring of kidney function in the patients taking the drug. In general, noogerone showed good tolerability, despite the elderly age of its patients and the high prevalence of concomitant somatic diseases in the sample.
