How to deal with hyperlipemia

Found that blood lipid increase must be actively dealt with. The first thing to do is to change lifestyle habits, such as limiting the total calorie intake of diet, eating less foods containing high cholesterol, especially fried foods, eating more high-fiber foods such as vegetables and whole grains, increasing physical activity, controlling weight, quitting smoking and alcohol. If the blood lipid is slightly elevated, it can be well controlled by these measures. If the blood fat is seriously elevated, it should be treated with lipid-lowering drugs under the guidance of a doctor.

At present, there are many kinds of drugs used in clinical lipid-lowering, among which statins, cholesterol absorption inhibitors (ezetimibe, Hibomimab), PCSK9 inhibitors (ilozumab, aliciumab) are mainly used to reduce cholesterol, and fibrate lipid-lowering drugs, high-purity fish oil, and niacin preparations are mainly used to reduce triglycerides.

In some European and American countries, the lipid management guidelines emphasize the application of high-dose and high-intensity statins. Due to the poor tolerance of Chinese residents to high-dose statins, Chinese guidelines suggest that conventional dose (medium-intensity) statins should be used as routine treatment. If cholesterol is not up to standard, cholesterol absorption inhibitors or (and) PCSK9 inhibitors should be combined in time, which will help to obtain the best treatment effect with the least adverse reaction cost.
