Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Mean Change C-reactive protein
hs -CRP (mg/l)
AFTER 4 WEEKS
Study Arms (2)
rosuvastatin 20 mg
EXPERIMENTALatorvastatin 40 mg
EXPERIMENTALInterventions
Quantitative estimation of hs-CRP will be conducted at the beginning of the study and after the treatment period using the Turbox CRP kit, which employs turbidimetry as the method of measurement.
The statin are most commonly used agents for prevention of cardiovascular events and recurrent episodes of ACS. Apart from their anti-lipid actions, statins show pleotropic effects which include their anti-inflammatory role. Atorvastatin and rosuvastatin are both members of statin family and have showed their effectiveness in reduction of inflammatory biomarkers in addition to their lipid lowering effects

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients with age 18 years and above, of both genders, diagnosed with acute coronary syndrome (as per operational definition) who were not taking statins previously.
- Patients who sign written informed consent to participate in the study.
You may not qualify if:
- Patients who are taking either statins and/or any other drug which lower serum lipid levels, patients with a history of statin hypersensitivity, patients in whom statins are contraindicated.
- Patients who will be surgically managed will be also excluded. 3.if coronary revascularization will be planned or anticipated at the time of screening.
- Pregnant or lactating women. 5.Patients having concomitant infections which cause the rise of inflammatory markers.
