statins effect on lipid profile
best decrease in ldl cholesterol (18-55%)
hdl varied increase( inc when already high)
TG- (-) 7-30% (not best)
statins MOA
inhibit hmg cAO reductase
hmgcoa to mevalonic acid
RLS in chol synth
increase ldl-r (actual mech for dec in blood cholesterol)
with additional cardioprotective effects (-PL agg, antiinfl,stabile plaques(even reverse)(atorvastatin most potent=lipitor)
lipitor=
atorvastatin ( most potent)
Statins SE
hepatotoxic--(transaminase *3 =abn)usually only if pre-existing dys.
pregnancy XXXXXXXXXXX******
MYOPATHY (this is the big one)monitor creatinine present with dark urine
Rhabdomyolisis (additive with gemfirozil and niacin)

grapefruit juice(cyp 450 inh)
Statins contraindications
and drug interactions
absolute----preg, active liver disease,
Relative-cyp450 inh (grapefruit juice)
bile acid sequestrants
named
cholestyramine,colestipol,
colesevalam
BA sequ.....mOA
+ charge bind (-) bile
dec neg feedback = inc prod cholest cont BAs
increased LDL-R
BUT increased TGs********
CHolestyramine
effect on lipid profile
(questra)a bile acid sequestrant
LDL- (-) 15-30% (pretty good)
hdl + 3-5%
TG = or INCREASE*****
CHolestyramine
SEs
hyper TGs
dec VIT ABS
bloat, constipation
binds heavily to acidic drugc
(dig,warf,thiaz,vit k)
CIs- high TGs, DM
Ezetimibe
Moa
Chol abs (-)
No effect on FS vitamins
prodrug
DIARRHEA......abd pain (INDUCED STEATORHEA)
Vytorin
ezetimibe + simvastatin
additive
Ezetimibe
effect on lipid profile
minimal change for the best accross the board
nicotinic acid
inhibits TG syntheisis inhibits lipase to leave less free FA available for VLDL synthesis----results in decreased ldl levels
BEST For increased HDL levels
nicotinic acid effect on lipid profile
(-) LDL 5-25%
HDL + 15-35%*********
TGs (-) 20-50% (VERY GOOD)
Niacin SE
CIs
FLUSHING(dose limiting) pretreat with aspirin)
Preg C
Hyperuricemia
Hepatotoxic
Hyperglyc in DM
CIs Absolute-liver dis, gout
rel- DM (dec free FA>dec liver TG syn> dec VLDL> increased Insulin resistance,PUD (inc acid prod)
stimulate lipoprotein lipase
the fibrates
Gemfibrozil, Clofibrate, fenofibrate
Gemfibrozil
Moa
unclear----activates lipoprotein lipase
works on periphery
decreased VLDL synth incr clearance> dec ldl
Fibrates
SE
CONTRA
GI distress
rash
BM depress
Myositis (usually with statin combo)
gallstones
CIs severe liver/renal disease
Fibrates
effect on lipid prophile
rarely first line therapy
ldl moderate
HDL 10-20% ( 2nd best)
TGS up to 50% (very good)
