Abstract
In South Korea, a high rate of permanent discontinuation of statin therapy in patients with ASCVD or diabetes places these patients at high risk for cardiovascular events in the future. A decreasing trend of adherence to LLT implies that more intensive education and management are required to improve therapeutic effect and reduce the risk for ASCVD. The high rate of possible statin intolerance highlights an unmet need in the prevention and management of ASCVD in South Korea.
