Statin resistant dyslipidemia in a patient treated with amiodarone.

Ahmad Al-Sarraf1, Min Li, Jiri Frohlich.   

Abstract

The authors describe a patient treated with amiodarone presented with high low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels who did not respond to treatment with a statin. Both amiodarone and amiodarone induced hypothyroidism influence the synthesis of LDL-receptor which may explain the lack of effect of statin. This was confirmed by normalisation of LDL-C upon discontinuation of amiodarone and treatment with thyroxine.
