|---|---|
| Drug interactions of Statins? | (Zocor) Simvastatin and (mevacor) lovastatin(CYP 3A4 inhibitors), Atorvastatin(parital CYP 3A4 inhib), Fluvastatin(CYP 2D9 inhib/hardly any drugs inhibit), Pravastatin(sulfonation), Gemfibrozile(fibrinic acid) interacts withh all statins except Fluva |
| Common side effects of Statins? | Constipation, bloating, cramps, heartburn, myopathy(algias), insomnia and sleep disturbances(Lovastatin and simvastatin), Rhabdo(fibrates, niacin and cyp 450 inhibitors(macrolids, keto) increase chances, Myoglobinurea. |
| What should you monitor if on a statin? | LFTs at start 2,6, mo(AST/ALTcan cause cirrhotic hepatitis), CPK if complaints of myopathy(can cause myositis which leads to rhabdo which causes kidney failure) |
| Effects of Statins on lipids? | Reduce LDL-C 18-55%, Reduce TG 7-30%, Raise HDL-C 5-15%, Reduce coronary events, CHD mortality, PTCA/CABG, Stroke and total mortality |

| Bile Acid Binding Resins - Drugs, Effects, Side Effects, Contraindications | Colesevelam (welchol), Cholestyramine (Queastran); reduce LDL-C 20% by inhib bile acid recycle, conjuct statin(better than stat alone), small inc in TG & HDL, Diarrhea and Liver failure; SE: cons, fecal impac, bloating, flat; CI: Abs: TG>400; Rel: TG>200 |
| Bile Acid Binding Resins - Dosing, Drug interactions | Colesvelam (welchol) 6 pills/small, Cholestryramine (questran) taste like a gritty paste; Inhibits absorption; Dose other meds 1 hour before or 4 hours later, (Welchol) does not inhibit absroption |
| Ezetimibe (Zetia) - Effects, Side Effects, Contraindications | Reduces cholesterol 20% by inhib abs, 22% above statin in conjuction; SE: Rhabdo(rare/ higher w/ statin lfts too), GI upset; CI: liver disease |
