Fat consumption in western society has increased dramatically throughout the course of the twentieth century. As a consequence, coronary heart disease is now the most common cause of death from middle age onwards in much of the developed world. Yet trials have shown that lipid-lowering drugs can decrease the risk of coronary heart disease and stroke, and increase life expectancy. Using an evidence-based approach this illustrated guide offers practical solutions to the problems encountered by healthcare professionals in the clinical management of hyperlipidaemia.

Lipids and lipoproteins; epidemiology and pathophysiology; familial (monogenic) hypercholesterolaemia; polygenic and familial combined hyperlipidaemias; hypertriglyceridaemia; type III hyperlipoproteinaemia; secondary hyperlipidaemia; dietary treatment; drug treatment; when to treat; clinical and laboratory tests; future trends.
