Abstract
Statins are widely accepted therapy for lipid management in patients at increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, mitigation of CVD risk in the event of an adverse effect and the inability to reach lipid targets remain key challenges of lipid management. These patients often require an individualised approach to management, such as with a lower-dose statin or an alternative therapy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
