Dyslipidemia, characterized by abnormal lipid levels in the bloodstream, is a very common and underappreciated chronic disease associated with a significant cardiovascular disease burden. The management landscape for dyslipidemia has historically been static, with a sparse selection of therapeutic options. This article presents a comprehensive review of contemporary approaches to dyslipidemia management, focusing on therapeutic strategies and emerging interventions. We delineate the most current American Heart Association/American College of Cardiology & Canadian Cardiovascular Society guidelines and examine pivotal clinical trials that are shaping the contemporary approach to dyslipidemia management.
