Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effectiveness and economics of 10 mg/d rosuvastatin and 20 mg/d atorvastatin in the treatment of hyperlipidemia (HLP). METHODS:The information of 180 HLP patients selected from Tianmen Municipal First People's Hospital during Mar. 2015-Feb. 2016 were divided into group A and B according to medication regimen,with 90 cases in each group. Group A was given Atorvastatin calcium tablet 20 mg,qd;group B was given Rosuvastatin calcium tablet 10 mg,qd. Treatment course of 2 groups lasted for 8 weeks. Blood lipid indexes before and after treatment,lipid-lowering efficacy,the rate of qualified blood lipid and the occurrence of ADR after treatment were compared between 2 groups. Cost-effectiveness analysis was adopted for economic evaluation. RESULTS:Before treatment,there was no statistical significance in the levels of blood lipid in-dexes between 2 groups (P>0.05). After treatment,TC and LDL-C levels of 2 groups were significantly lower than before treat-ment,and those of group B were significantly lower than those of group A,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Total response rate of lipid-lowering in group B(97.78%)was significantly higher than group A(86.67%),and the rate of qualified blood lipid (66.67%)was also significantly higher than group A(51.11%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups (P>0.05). The costs of group A and B were 488.32,436.24 yuan,and cost-effectiveness ratios were 5.63,4.46;incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was -4.69. The plan of group B had cost-effective-ness advantage. The results of cost-effectiveness analysis were supported by sensitivity analysis. CONCLUSIONS:In the view of short-term efficacy,10 mg/d rosuvastatin plan is better than 20 mg/d atorvastatin plan in lowering lipid and has cost-effectiveness advantage,and both have similar safety.
