Bempedoic acid, an adenosine triphosphate citrate lyase inhibitor, was introduced to UK practice via a pre-reimbursement access scheme for adults with primary hypercholesterolaemia or mixed dyslipidaemia who are at high risk of cardiovascular disease, in whom statins are either not tolerated or contraindicated, who have not achieved target cholesterol, despite being on ezetimibe therapy, and do not qualify for PCSK9 inhibitor treatment. This retrospective multicentre audit aimed to evaluate the achievement of lipid-lowering targets with bempedoic acid in UK patients based on recommendations in the Joint British Societies (JBS) guidelines for the prevention of cardiovascular disease.
