pregnancy
35
What drugs cause bad interactions with statins
increase statin: CYP inhibitors, cyclosprine, ketoconozole fibrates
decrease statin: CYP inducers (phenytoin and rifampin)
36
How does niacin work
inhibits lipolysis of TG in adipose and reduces circulatin FFA
37
what are the affects of niacin on apoA1 and plasma HDL
decrease apoA1 clearance and increase plasma HDL
38
what are the affects of niacin on clotting factors
decrease fibrinogen levels and increase tpa
39
why do you have to dose constantly with nicotinic acid, niacin
extensive first pass. t1/2 is 60 minutes
40
what are the adverse ractions with niacin
cutaneous flush (PG mediated), pruritis, acanthosis nigricans, hepatotoxicity
41
what are the contraindications with niacin
hepatic disease, active PUD, caution DM
42
how do fibrates work
PPARalpha agonists that regulate expression of proteins involved in lipoprotein structure and function, increased expression LPL
43
what is the main result of fibrates
decreased TG levels
44
what are the adverse reactions with fibrates
GI, lithiasis, myositis, myopathy
45
what are the contraindications with fibrates
avoid in hepatic or renal dysfunction, pregnancy
46
what main anticoagulant has a drug interaction with statins
warfarin, increased risk of rhabdomyolysis if used with statins
47
how do bile acid sequestrants work
bind bile acids increasing excretion in stool. so ehnaced conversion of cholesterol to BA and increased LDL clearance
48
what are the adverse reactions with bile acid sequestrants (resins)
GI constipation and nausea, impaired ADEK absorption
49
what are the contraindications with resins
caution in diverticulitis, bowel disease and cholestasis
50
what are the drug interactions with resins
impairs drug absorption- separate admin
51
how does ezetimibe work
inhibits NPC1L1 inhibits absorption of cholesterol and plant sterols
52
what is adverse reaction with ezetimibe
diarrhea
53
what are the drug interactions with resins
have to separate time of administartion by at least 4 hours because resins will bind up drugs
54
what is the overall effect of statins on lipoproteins
decrease LDL
55
what is the overall effect of niacin on lipoproteins
increase HDL
56
what is the overall effect of resins on lipoproteins
decrease LDL
57
What is the main Tx course for atherosclerotic CV disease ASCVD
maximizing statin intesnsity reduces amount of events
58
What are the 4 statin benefit groups
1) ASCVD
2) primary elevation of LDL-C >190 mg
3) age 40-75 with DM and LDL-C 70-189 mg
4) No clinical ASCVD or DM who are 40-75 y/o and LDL-C 70-189 mg with ASCVD risk >7.5%
59
if patient is above 21 and has clinical ASCVD what Tx is first line
75 moderate intensity statin
60
patient does not have ASCVD but has LDL-C >190 Tx?
high intesnsity statin
61
patient does not have ASCVD or LDL-C >190 but has DM I or II and is 40-75. Tx?
moderate intensity
high if estimated 10 y risk is >7.5%
62
what does high intesnsity statin mean
daily dose lowers LDL-C by approx 50%
63
what does moderate intesnsity statin mean
daily dose lowers LDL-C by approx 30-<50%
64
what are the high intesnsity statins available and doses

65
what cause homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia
defects in LDL R gene

once dialy oral dosew
71
what is mechanism of lomitapide
