the study aims to examine the short-term (30 days) effects of olive leaf extract on endothelial function in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). This investigation will be conducted on patients admitted to the emergency department for ACS. All participants will be screened and included within 24 hours post-ACS event and prior to discharge from the emergency department.

Patients will receive a study drug (olive leaf extracts) which will be prescribed at dose of 250 mg (one capsule ) twice daily ( total500mg daily) for one month. patients will be assigned to one of three arm using a computer-generated randomization list ( 1:1:1 allocation ).
Patients will receive a study drug (olive leaf extracts) which will be prescribed at dose of 500 mg (two capsule ) twice daily ( total 1000mg daily) for one month. patients will be assigned to one of three arm using a computer-generated randomization list ( 1:1:1 allocation ).
Patients will receive placebo which will be prescribed one capsule twice daily for one months. patients will be assigned to one of three arm using a computer-generated randomization list ( 1:1:1 allocation ).
Reactive Hyperemia Index (RHI)
Change in endothelial function will be evaluated using Reactive Hyperemia Index (RHI) via Peripheral Arterial Tonometry (PAT), measured at baseline and after drug administration (olive leaf extract) in patients with acute coronary syndrome.
Time frame: 30-day
MACE rate
-The MACE (Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events) rate will include the following components: Myocardial infarction readmission Nonfatal stroke readmission Cardiovascular death Coronary revascularization, including percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) Admission for heart failure
Time frame: 30-day
