ALCOCER, Luis; HERNANDEZ Y HERNANDEZ, Héctor  y  NAVARRO ROBLES, José. Probable influence of 2013 ACC/AHA Guideline on the Treatment of hypercholesterolemia to reduce atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in adults, in the Mexican Official Norm for prevention and treatment of dyslipidemia. Rev. Mex. Cardiol [online]. 2015, vol.26, n.1, pp.34-38. ISSN 0188-2198.

We revised the new 2013 ACC/AHA Guideline on the treatment of hypercholesterolemia to reduce atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in adults. Treatment is essentially oriented to the early implementation of pharmacological interventions, including the use of statins for primary prevention. In the near future, the Mexican NOM-037-SSA2-2012, for prevention and treatment of dyslipidemia will be analyzed. Substantially, the Mexican NOM-037-SSA2-2012 concords with the new 2013 ACC/AHA Guideline, withal we consider that treatment should always be individually adjusted.

Palabras llave : Guideline ACC/AHA; NOM-037-SSA2-2012; statins; life style.
