چکیده
Among patients who had not achieved LDL-C goals, two-thirds had abnormal HDL-C or triglyceride levels, or both. Dr. Gitt concluded: “Many patients in Europe and Canada, the majority of whom are at high risk for cardiovascular events, do not reach their LDL-C goals in spite of statin therapy.” He said further in an interview, “There is a lot of space for improvement, either by increasing doses or by adding ezetimibe or other non-statin lipid-lowering drugs. We now have to encourage physicians to treat to target rather than just insuring that the right drugs are being taken.”
