Q

MOA

Rosuvastatin, Atorvastatin, Simvastatin

Clinical Use

A

Reversible competitive inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase, the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis; increase synthesis and reduces degradation of LDL receptors; more LDL receptors on surface of hepatocytes=increased removal of LDL from blood

Clinical Use: Hyperlipidemia, Diabetes,CAD, history of MI, past stroke

Q

MOA

Ezetimibe

Clincal Use

A

Selective inhibition of cholesterol absorption from the small intestine via the sterol transporter NPC1L

used with statins decreases LDL levels by 25% than with statin alone

16
Q

Adverse Effects

Ezetimibe

A

Usually well tolerated; headache, diarrhea, or increase LFT possible

17
Q

MOA

Alirocumab

Clinical Use

A

*Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is a protein that binds to the LDL receptor, reduces the LDL receptor density, and increases circulating LDL. PCSK9 inhibitors are human monoclonal antibodies that block this process, increase LDL receptors and decrease circulating LDL.

Clinical Use: Hyperlipidemia, Diabetes,CAD, history of MI, past stroke

18
Q

Adverse Effects

Alirocumab

A

Injection site reactions, nasopharyngitis, diarrhea, flu-like symptoms, myalgias, neurocognitive effects?

19
Q

MOA

Fenofibrate

Clinical Use

A

Agonist for the nuclear transcription factor PPAR-α which increases lipolysis and decreases TG. (increases LPL activity)

fibric acid derivate

ClinicaL Use: Hypertriglyceridemia

20
Q

Adverse Effects

Fenofibrate

A

Myalgia, GI upset, increase LFT possible, increased risk for gallstones

21
