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
