Résumé

The effectiveness of statins in the primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular (CV) diseases has been widely proven. However, the onset of adverse events associated with their use prevents to achieve the therapeutic targets recommended by the guidelines (GL) for the management of dyslipidemia. In the event of statin intolerance, the GL recommend to use bile acid sequestrants, fibrates, and ezetimibe in monotherapy, but their benefits in improving lipid pattern are quite modest. This study aims at evaluating the effectiveness and safety of a nutraceutical compound (NC) associated with ezetimibe (EZE) on the lipid profile in statin-intolerant patients with moderate-to-high CV risk. Ninety-six statin-intolerant hypertensive and hypercholesterolemic subjects treated pharmacologically with EZE 10 mg daily were randomized in open label (
