About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Carotid Atherosclerosis focused on measuring atherosclerosis, regression, Allicor, garlic, intima-media thickness

Eligibility Criteria

40 Years - 74 Years (Adult, Older Adult)MaleAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Men aged 40 to 74 years
  • Subclinical carotid atherosclerosis detected by B-mode ultrasound (increased intima-media thickness 1100-2000 mcm)
  • Arterial normotension or mild arterial hypertension (systolic blood pressure <160 mm Hg, diastolic blood pressure <90 mm Hg)
  • Absence of chronic diseases demanding permanent drug administration (more than 2 month per year)

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Personal history or diagnostic of following diseases:

    1. Transient ischemic attacks
    2. Presence of chronic diseases demanding permanent drug administration (more than 2 month per year)
    3. Condition of patients moderate to severe
  • Indications for surgical treatment of atherosclerotic lesions localized in the extracranial brachiocephalic system.
  • Individual intolerance of Allicor or appearance of side effects
