“…The availability and use of lipid-lowering medication, such as statin therapy and ezetimibe, or proprotein convertase subtilisin-kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors, significantly reduces lipid levels. In turn, reducing the number of patients with hyperlipidemia and therefore the risk of an acute cardiovascular event ( 40 , 41 ). Statin therapies also generally reduced the risk of an acute cardiovascular event by 25 to 45%, which was noted over 5 years of follow-ups ( 6 ).…”

“…But around 40% of total number of patients receiving statins experience cardiovascular disease [30,31]. They have some other notable side effects like insulin resistance and myopathy or myalgia [32]. Studies show Rosuvastatin is more efficacious in improving lipid profile, atherogenic index and modulation of inflammatory biomarkers in dyslipidemic T2D patients compared with Atorvastatin.…”

“…Recently statins have been used with Ezetimibe or proprotein convertase subtilisin-kexin type 9 (PCSK-9) inhibitors to reduce LDL-C levels further but still a significant residual risk of CVD exist [35]. The protein named as Niemann-Pick C1-like 1 protein plays a key role in cholesterol absorption from the intestines and it is targeted upon by Ezetimibe [32]. Co-administration of ezetimibe with statins in a study on hypercholestraemia patients significantly decreased CRP and insulin levels, increased adiponectin levels and insulin sensitivity, and reduced visceral fat and blood pressure [36].…”

“…The treatment of dyslipidemia is dominated by statins, used as monotherapy or in combination with ezetimibe, proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors, and fibrates, which have been demonstrated to be effective in lipid-lowering and cardiovascular risk reduction. Statins act by decreasing the cellular cholesterol content by selectively inhibiting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, limiting cholesterol biosynthesis, and lowering hepatic cholesterol concentrations [ 4 ]; thus, it reduces major vascular events, major coronary events and coronary revascularizations, and ischemic stroke [ 5 ]. However, statins are often associated with adverse effects such as liver toxicity and myopathy.…”
