Long-Term Safety and Efficacy of Bempedoic Acid in Patients With Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease and/or Heterozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia (from the CLEAR Harmony Open-Label Extension Study)

Christie M. Ballantyne et al.

Summary: Limited data exist on the long-term safety and efficacy of bempedoic acid for lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. This study followed patients for up to 2.5 years of continuous treatment and found that bempedoic acid was generally well tolerated and demonstrated sustained efficacy.

Red yeast rice for dyslipidaemias and cardiovascular risk reduction: A position paper of the International Lipid Expert Panel

Maciej Banach et al.

Summary: The risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is strongly correlated with lifetime exposure to LDL-cholesterol. Lipid-lowering therapy can substantially reduce this risk, and red yeast rice preparations as a nutraceutical have shown to be effective and safe in reducing cholesterol and cardiovascular events.
