QUÉ SIGNIFICA STATIN EN INGLÉS
Estatina
Las estatinas son una clase de fármacos utilizados para reducir los niveles de colesterol al inhibir la enzima HMG-CoA reductasa, que desempeña un papel central en la producción de colesterol en el hígado, que produce alrededor del 70 por ciento del colesterol total en el cuerpo. Los niveles altos de colesterol se han asociado con enfermedades cardiovasculares. Las estatinas se han encontrado para prevenir las enfermedades cardiovasculares en los que están en alto riesgo. La evidencia es fuerte que las estatinas son eficaces para tratar la ECV en las primeras etapas de una enfermedad. La evidencia es más débil que las estatinas son eficaces para aquellos con niveles elevados de colesterol, pero sin CVD. Los efectos secundarios de las estatinas incluyen dolor muscular, mayor riesgo de diabetes y anomalías en las pruebas enzimáticas hepáticas. Además, tienen efectos adversos raros pero severos, particularmente daño muscular. Algunos médicos creen que las estatinas son prescritas en exceso. A partir de 2010, una serie de estatinas están en el mercado: atorvastatina, fluvastatina, lovastatina, pitavastatina, pravastatina, rosuvastatina y simvastatina. También están disponibles varias preparaciones de combinación de una estatina y otro agente, tales como ezetimiba / simvastatina.
