Patients who survive an acute coronary syndrome are at high risk of recurrent events and death in the first months of evolution. Aspirin, angiotensin-converting enzyme, beta-blockers and statins decrease the risk of recurrent events and death, so are the recommended treatment for most patients who had a heart attack, and adherence to these recommendations is associated better clinical outcome. However, numerous studies show high dropout rate of medical treatment. The cause of nonadherence, common problem in chronic diseases, is multifactorial (economic, cultural, adverse effects), the complexity of the treatment being prescribed a relevant factor as a cause of non-compliance. The investigators goal is to assess whether the simplification of treatment for secondary prevention in a once-daily capsule containing four drugs increased adherence to it, compared to the standard treatment of each drug separately. The investigators design a controlled, randomized, open, parallel-group clinical study. Patients will be randomized to one of the following treatment regimens: * Combined-Capsule: capsule containing an adjusted patient combination scheme for secondary prevention of once daily. * Usual-treatment: each component of the dish separately as is the usual practice. The primary endpoint is the adherence of the treatment regimen to secondary prevention. For the study was considered adherent to a patient taking at least 80% of medication that belongs in the period.
