Therapeutic lifestyle changes should be the first approach tried in all patients (Table 9—7).3 An adequate trial of TLC should be employed in all patients, but pharmacotherapy should be instituted concurrently in higher-risk patients. This includes dietary restrictions of cholesterol and saturated fats as well as regular exercise and weight reduction. In addition, therapeutic options to enhance LDL cholesterol lowering such as consumption of plant stanols/sterols (which competitively inhibit incorporation of cholesterol into micelles) and dietary fiber should be encouraged. These therapeutic options collectively may reduce LDL cholesterol by 20% to 25%. [Pg.183]

Therapeutic lifestyle changes should be continued and intensified (consider adding plant sterols/stanols and increase fiber) after 6 weeks if not below LDL cholesterol target. For those patients above their LDL cholesterol target after adequate trial of TLC (12 to 18 weeks), pharmacotherapy should be strongly considered. [Pg.192]

Moderate weight loss has been shown to reduce cardiovascular risk, as well as delay or prevent the onset of DM in those with pre-diabetes. The recommended primary approach to weight loss is therapeutic lifestyle change (TLC), which integrates a 500 to 1000 kcal/day reduction in calorie intake and... [Pg.652]

Initial therapy for any lipoprotein disorder is therapeutic lifestyle changes with restricted intake of total and saturated fat and cholesterol and a modest increase in polyunsaturated fat intake, along with a program of regular exercise and weight reduction if needed. [Pg.429]

If pharmacologic therapy is insufficient after therapeutic lifestyle changes, lipid-lowering agents should be chosen based on the specific lipoprotein disorder presentation and the severity of the lipid abnormality. [Pg.429]
