  • 3rd side (hint)
lovastatin
inhibit HMG CoA reductase, the rate limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis, v LDL and TG, ^ HDL
metabolized by P450 3A4
pravastatin
inhibit HMG CoA reductase, the rate limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis, v LDL and TG, ^ HDL
not metabolized by CPY450 pathway
simvastatin
inhibit HMG CoA reductase, the rate limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis, v LDL and TG, ^ HDL
metabolized by P450 3A4
fluvastatin
inhibit HMG CoA reductase, the rate limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis, v LDL and TG, ^ HDL
least potent
metabolized by P450 mediated pathway
atorvastatin
inhibit HMG CoA reductase, the rate limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis, v LDL and TG, ^ HDL
more potent
metabolized by P450 3A4
rosuvastatin
inhibit HMG CoA reductase, the rate limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis, v LDL and TG, ^ HDL
more potent
not metabolized by CPY450 pathway
cholestyramine
bile acid sequestrant
not absorbed systemically
time released after meal
can decrease absorption of fat soluble vitamins (vit K- bleeding)
OK for young patients
may raise TG levels
colesevelam
bile acid sequestrant
not absorbed systemically
time released after meal
can decrease absorption of fat soluble vitamins (vit K- bleeding)
OK for young patients
may raise TG levels
colestipol
bile acid sequestrant
not absorbed systemically
time released after meal
can decrease absorption of fat soluble vitamins (vit K- bleeding)
OK for young patients
may raise TG levels
plant sterols
decrease cholesterol transport from micelles into enterocyte by inhibiting uptake through brush border protein NPC1L1, v LDL and TG, ^ HDL
naturally present in fruits and vegetables
structurally similar to cholesterol, but more hydrophobic
displace cholesterol from micelles, increase excretion in stool
ezetimibe
decrease cholesterol transport from micelles into enterocyte by inhibiting uptake through brush border protein NPC1L1, v LDL and TG, ^ HDL
statin used to counter increased cholesterol synthesis caused by reduction in absorption
ezetimibe levels increased with fibrates and cyclosporite
gemfibrozil
fibrates- increase PPARa activity, changes lipid metabolism ^ HDL, v TG
fenofibrate
fibrates- increase PPARa activity, changes lipid metabolism ^ HDL, v TG
increases clearance of cyclosporine- must monitor transplant patients carefully
has fewer GI and myopathy adverse effects than gemfibrozil
bezafibrate
fibrates- increase PPARa activity, changes lipid metabolism ^ HDL, v TG
ciprofibrate
fibrates- increase PPARa activity, changes lipid metabolism ^ HDL, v TG
Omecor
Omega 3 fatty acids
Niacin
reduces free FA release from adipose tissue, increases plasma residence time for apoAiI
v LDL and TG, ^ HDL, flushing occurs because of prostaglandin G coupled reaction, hyperuricemia- gout, associated with impaired insulin sensitivity
