Modlip (5mg) dosing

Usual Adult Dose for Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease:

Initial dose: 10 mg to 80 mg orally once a day.
The initial dosage of Modlip recommended for this patient in the prevention of cardiovascular disease is 10 mg to 80 mg orally once a day. Modlip (5mg) may be administered at any time of the day without regard for meals.

Studies have demonstrated that treatment with Modlip (5mg) is associated with significant reductions in the risk of cardiovascular endpoints and stroke in various patient populations for both primary and secondary prevention.
For primary prevention, Modlip (5mg) treatment was effective in hypertensive patients with normal or mildly elevated cholesterol levels as well as in patients with type II diabetes. Patients had relatively low cholesterol levels at baseline in both trials; however, treatment with Modlip (5mg) still resulted in significant reductions in cardiovascular outcomes and stroke.
For secondary prevention, intensive Modlip (5mg) lowering therapy with Modlip (5mg) 80 mg/day was associated with significant incremental clinical benefit beyond therapy with 10 mg/day in patients with stable coronary heart disease. It was also shown to significantly reduce the risk of clinical outcomes in coronary heart disease patients versus usual medical care.

Usual Adult Dose for Hyperlipidemia:

Initial dose: 10, 20 or 40 mg orally once a day. The 40 mg starting dose is recommended for patients who require a reduction in LDL-cholesterol of more than 45%.
