The management of lipid disorders can be challenging. Many patients are wary of statins, whilst clinical and PBS guidelines are not always consistent. How do we manage these challenges in general practice? Who should we screen, who should we treat and how?

Our experts will provide advice and insights on the diagnosis, treatment and ongoing management of the cases.
