Guidelines for Lipid-Lowering Therapy 3822
- Clinically significant atherosclerotic disease:
- ACS, Ml, Stable or unstable angina, Coronary or other arterial revascularization, Stroke, TIA, PAD
- Age ≤75 High-intensity statin
- Age > 75: Moderate-intensity statin
- LDL ≥190 mg/dl
- High-intensity statin
- Age 40-75 with diabetes and LDL 70-189
- 10-year ASCVD risk ≥7.5% High-intensity statin
- 10-year ASCVD risk: Moderate-intensity statin
- Estimated 10-year ASCVD risk ≥7.5% (Pooled Cohort Equations), 40-75 and LDL 70-189
- Moderate- to high-intensity statin*
- Statins
- High-intensity statins: atorvastatin 40-80 mg, rosuvastatin 20-40 mg
- Moderate-intensity statins: atorvastatin 10-20 mg, rosuvastatin 5-10 mg, simvastatin 20-40 mg, pravastatin 40-80 mg, lovastatin 40 mg
- Medium intensity in liver and renal disaease as well
- Tests prior to starting a statin
- Baseline values of Lipids, A1c, CK, and LFTs are required before starting a statin
- Lipids are assessed annually (NOT q3months)
- A1C reassessed q3months
- CK and LFTs are NOT checked routinely
- Assess them only when there’s evidence of disease ie myositis or hepatitis
- If myositis or hepatitis occur then stop and start back up again at a lower dose
- Aspirin for secondary prevention of CV events in established atherosclerotis; considered primary prevention in diabetes with 10-year risk >10%,
