The Baker Lipid Series (Part 4)
The Baker Lipid Series (Part 4)
Despite being the gold standard for cardiovascular disease prevention, almost 50% of patients stop taking their statins within a year – putting them at risk of serious cardiac events. In this episode we explore why adherence to lipid-lowering therapies is so poor and what GPs can do to improve long-term patient compliance.
Hear practical strategies for addressing patient concerns, countering the nocebo effect, and optimising treatment with combination therapies including the latest PCSK9 inhibitors, and gain actionable insights to help your patients stay on track with cholesterol management.
