  6. There Are Three Principles of Managing Lipids With Medications

  7. First Principle of Lipid Drug Management Start a Statin

  8. They Produce Remarkable Reductions in LDL Levels

  9. LDL-C Reductions with Different Statin Strategies 10 mg 20 mg 40 mg 20 mg 40 mg 80 mg 10 mg 20 mg 40 mg 10 mg 80 mg 40 mg 10 mg 20 mg P<0.002 vs CRESTOR 20 mg P<0.002 vs CRESTOR 40 mg P<0.002 vs CRESTOR 10 mg Change in LDL-C from baseline (%) -5 -10 -15 20 -25 -30 -35 -40 -45 -50 -55 -60 0 rosuvastatin atorvastatin simvastatin pravastatin Adapted from Jones PH et alAm J Cardiol 2003;92:152–160

  10. Second Principle of Lipid Drug Management Start a Statin

  11. They Cure Almost Every Lipid Problem That Ails You • LDL – Cholesterol • Triglycerides • HDL – Cholesterol • LDL Particle Size • Hs CRP

  13. Third Principle of Lipid Drug Management Start a Statin

  14. They Have Incredible Outcome DATA

  16. Statins Lower Risk - Even if the Risk Factor is Not LDL-Cholesterol

  17. Statins In the Water ?

  18. Not So Fast • There Are No Long Term Studies of Continuous Statin Treatment • The Number Needed to Treat for Low Risk Patients is Huge • Statins Have Side Effects • That No Pharmaceutical Company Wants to Study

  19. I Came Here Not To Bury Statins But To Praise Them But There Is A Problem

  20. Statin – Associated Myopathy

  21. Exercise & Statin Myopathy - Take Home Messages • Statins Are Remarkably Effective at Reducing CAD Risk • But Can Produce Myopathic (and Possibly Neurological) Side Effects • Exercise Causes Many of The CK Elevations Attributed to Statins • Exercise Magnifies Statin Myalgia & CK Increases • Some Patients Report Weakness, But There is Little Objective Data on Muscle Strength • Long Term Muscle Effects of Statins Are Unknown

  22. Exercise & Statin Myopathy - Take Home Messages • Statins Are Remarkably Effective at Reducing CAD Risk • But Can Produce Myopathic (and Possibly Neurological) Side Effects • Exercise Causes Many of The CK Elevations Attributed to Statins • Exercise Magnifies Statin Myalgia & CK Increases • Some Patients Report Weakness, But There is Little Objective Data on Muscle Strength • Long Term Muscle Effects of Statins Are Unknown

  23. Statin - Related Muscle Complaints • Myositis and Rhabdomyolysis - CK > 10 X ULN • Increased CK < 10 X ULN  Symptoms • Myalgia With No CK Increases • Muscle Weakness - Virtually Unstudied • Muscle Cramps • Persistent Myalgia ± CK ’s Even After Withdrawal

  24. Exercise & Statin Myopathy - Take Home Messages • Statins Are Remarkably Effective at Reducing CAD Risk • But Can Produce Myopathic (and Possibly Neurological) Side Effects • Exercise Causes Many of The CK Elevations Attributed to Statins • Exercise Magnifies Statin Myalgia & CK Increases • Some Patients Report Weakness, But There is Little Objective Data on Muscle Strength • Long Term Muscle Effects of Statins Are Unknown

  25. Exercise ALONE Can Produce Remarkable CK Increases So That Many CK Increases Attributed to Statins Are Due to Exercise

  42. What Causes Statin Myopathy ?

  43. I DON’T KNOW

  44. Possible Mechanisms of Statin Induced Muscle Injury 1.Reduced Sarcolemmal Cholesterol 2. Reduced T-Tubule & Sarcoplamic Recticulum Cholesterol Draeger JPath 2006 3. Reduced Isoprenoids: Ubiquinone - Co-enzy Q10 4. Reduced Prenylation of GTP Binding Proteins - Ras, Rac and Rho - Cell Maintenance, Growth & Reduced ApoptosisColeman Cell Death Differ 2002 5. Changes in Fat Metabolism (Phillips P Atherosclerosis 2005) 6.  Increased Muscle Cholesterol & ? Plant Sterol 2nd to LDL Receptor Activity (Paiva Clin Pharmacol Ther 2005) • Failure to Appropriately Repair Damaged Muscle(Urso …. Thompson ATVB 2005) • Vitamin D Deficiency • Inflammation (Inflammatory Myopathy)
