Abstract
The incidence of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease has increased in the developed countries. Dyslipidemia is a primary major risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and LDL lowering is one of the main objectives. Although treatment goals for dyslipidemias should be personalized in every patient, statins are cost-effective in primary and secondary prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. New treatments with higher power and greater decreases in LDL, PSCK9 inhibitors, have made a new breakthrough in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease treatment. The 2019 guidelines for de management of dyslipidemias: lipid modification to reduce cardiovascular risk (European Society of Cardiology/European Atherosclerosis Society) with the level of evidence and the strength of the recommendations can facilitate the best decisions and benefits to our patients in clinical practice.
