- W2021327586 abstract "The use of maximum-dose simvastatin or atorvastatin in an ethnically diverse population was studied.This retrospective analysis was conducted at a publicly funded teaching institution whose predominant patient population consists of Hispanics and Asians. A computer-generated report was used to identify outpatients who received a prescription for maximum-dose simvastatin or atorvastatin between January 1, 2002, and January 1, 2004. Data evaluated included demographic information; metabolic syndrome elements; coronary heart disease (CHD) risk equivalents; clinical characteristics placing patients at very high risk of having a CHD event; 10-year Framingham risk score; documentation of hepatotoxicity, myalgia, myositis, or rhabdomyolysis during maximum-dose therapy; concomitant medication during maximumdose therapy; relevant laboratory test values; and physician response to biochemical abnormalities or adverse events associated with maximum-dose therapy.Of the 232 outpatients identified, 173 were eligible for study inclusion. A total of 135 patients were classified as having a high or very-high risk of developing CHD (68 and 67, respectively). The success rates for low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol goal attainment by very-high-risk patients and high-risk patients were 19.4% and 44.1%, respectively. Thirteen patients developed myalgia. Alanine transaminase levels were monitored for 38.8% of the study patients. Approximately 9% of patients were prescribed one interacting medication while on maximum-dose simvastatin or atorvastatin. The most commonly prescribed interacting drug was gemfibrozil.Despite the use of maximum-dose simvastatin or atorvastatin, target LDL cholesterol goals were not achieved and statin use was not adequately monitored in an ethnically diverse population with a high or very high risk of developing CHD." @default.
