Show Notes
On this episode, we review the recently published CLEAR-outcomes trial that was looking at bempedoic acid's (Nexletol) ability to lower the risk of CV events in patients who were unable to tolerate statins at their recommended doses.
While recording this episode, we used the trial summary written by Dr. Alex Poppen, PharmD who is the author/owner of the book High-Powered Medicine: Landmark Clinical Trial Reviews. To see all of the study summaries that he has available, check out his website below:
