Abstract
Although in the last years a better control of vascular risk factors has been achieved, «real-world» data showed that only a few percentage of patients reach low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol goal levels. Recently, new therapies for the management of dyslipidaemias have emerged, and they could help to achieve the goal targets recommended by currents practical clinical guidelines so as to reduce vascular outcomes. Nevertheless, it is still uncertain in daily clinical practice the ideal timing of prescribing these new drugs, and what are the patients more benefited, compared to «classical» therapies such as statins and/or ezetimibe. In this complex scenario, this consensus document is proposed. It is certified by most of the scientific societies of clinical specialties that may play a role in the patient-healthcare process of atherosclerotic disease (SEC/SEA/SEEN/SEMFYC/SEMERGEN/SEMG/SEN/SEACV/S.E.N.), and its aim is to recommend some practical and simple guidelines, based on current scientific evidence, for the management of new therapies for dyslipidaemias in different scenarios of daily clinical practice.
