- W3138589949 abstract "Statins are a panacea for secondary prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and primary prevention in high-risk individuals. They are very well tolerated and side effects like muscle toxicity and increased risk of new onset of diabetes are seen in a minority of cases. They are also recommended in diabetic patient because the benefit is many times more than the risk of diabetes. Statins reduce total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, Apo B, non-HDL cholesterol, and triglycerides, and also increase high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels in most patients with hypercholesterolemia and combined hyperlipidemia. Statins are not indicated in individuals with Frederickson Class I and V hyperlipidemias. Extensive literature supports use of statins in coronary heart disease (CHD) patients for treatment of dyslipidemia and secondary prevention. It has also been recognized that in secondary prevention and ACS populations lower LDL may be better. Trials have compared moderate with more robust LDL-C reduction, using maximum doses of atorvastatin or simvastatin. Available statins differ in their ability to reduce atherogenic lipoproteins and raise the level of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol. Depending on dose used and specific statin, LDL cholesterol reduction of 18% to 55% can be expected. Atorvastatin and rosuvastatin are the most potent statins for lowering LDL-C cholesterol levels, yielding average reductions that approach 50% for atorvastatin and exceed 50% for rosuvastatin at the highest dose. Reduction in triglycerides with statins ranges from 7% to 30%, and is higher in hypertriglyceridemic populations and at higher statin doses. HDL levels usually rise by 5% to 10%. No consistent dose response relationship between statin dose and degree of HDL increase is seen." @default.
