Brief Summary:

The Statin-Intolerance Registry will characterize the patient population suffering from statin-intolerance which is a frequent but incompletely understood patient condition with important clinical implications for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) prevention.

Patients will be systematically and prospectively included and followed by the registry.


Condition or disease
Dyslipidemias

Detailed Description:

This non-interventional registry based on routine clinical practice will collect data under real-life conditions. The treatment of patients will not be changed by this study.

Data on patient characteristics and the treatment history will be collected via questionnaires at study entree. Yearly follow up visits will re-assess the baseline parameters and document cardiovascular events.

The data will be analyzed using descriptive statistics.
