Abstract:
The new cholesterol absorption inhibitor Ezetimibe(EZ)could markedly reduce the LDL-C level and increase the HDL-C level with little adverse effect.EZ combined with statins shows cooperative effect and avoids the latent adverse effect of large dose of statins.Thus this combined therapy is a reasonable choice for the patients whose cholesterol level could not reach the standard after using optimum dose of statins.
