LDL Goals for Lipid Management
|
LDL<100 2+ risk factors
LDL<130 1-2 risk factors LDL<160 0-1 risk factors |
|
HDL Goals
|
>40 men
>50 women >60 is a negative risk factor |
|
Total cholesterol goals
|
<200 for most
>240 is high |
|
Triglycerides
|
<150 normal
200-499 high >500 dangerously high *priority for tx |
|
Friederwald equation for calculating LDL
|
LDL= TC - (HDL + TG/5)
|
|
ATP III
NCEP |
Adult treatment panel III
National Cholesterol Educational Program |
|
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH)
|
LDL= 250-450
|
|
Polygenic Hypercholesterolemia (most common)
|
LDL= 160-250
|
|
Combined hyperlipidemias
|
LDL= 160-250 and TGL= 200-800
|
|
Drugs that elevate lipids
|
BB, thiazides, BCP, oral estrogens, glucocorticoids, cyclosporines
|
|
Statins
|
Competitively inhibit HMGCoA reductase
upregulated LDL receptors, increase clearance of LDL and VLDL, increase HDL and lower TGL |
|
Bile acid sequestrants (BAS or resins)
|
Nonabsorbable anion exchange chloride ions for bile acids and other anions in the gi tract. Inhibits enterohepatic recycling. LDL receptors are upregulated
|
|
Niacin
|
Decreases VLDL senthesis leading to decrease LDL and TGL
inhibits apolipoprotein A1 which increases HDL |
