Dyslipidemia is a major vascular risk factor. Interestingly, several agents used for the prevention and treatment of vascular diseases have an adverse effect on the lipid profile. In addition, agents belonging to the same class (e.g. beta blockers) can have significantly different actions on lipid levels. We summarize the effects of drugs used for the prevention and treatment of vascular diseases on the lipid profile. These effects should be considered when selecting a specific agent, particularly in high-risk patients.
血脂异常是主要的血管危险因素。有趣的是,几种用于预防和治疗血管疾病的药物对血脂谱有不良影响。此外,属于同一类别的药物(如β受体阻滞剂)对血脂水平的作用可能有显著差异。我们总结了用于预防和治疗血管疾病的药物对血脂谱的影响。在选择特定药物时,尤其是在高危患者中,应考虑这些影响。
