PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Statins are essential medications in the treatment of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease; however, remain widely underutilized in large part due to concerns regarding adverse side effects. We describe the role of the nocebo effect in the perception of statin intolerance and provide management recommendations utilizing both statin and non-statin lipid-lowering therapies.
RECENT FINDINGS: The recent Self-Assessment Method for Statin side-effects Or Nocebo (SAMSON) trial demonstrated that 90% of adverse symptoms related to statins were also elicited by placebo, a powerful demonstration of the nocebo effect. Importantly, 50% of the study patients were able to successfully reinitiate statin therapy. Statin intolerance is common and can often be managed with expectation setting and adjustment of doses and/or dosing regimens. In those who remain unable to tolerate statins, numerous alternative lipid-lowering therapies exist with strong safety and efficacy profiles.
