Dyslipidemia/hypercholesterolemia is one of the most important cardiovascular risk factors. The new Guidelines of the European Society of Cardiology and European Atherosclerosis Society recommend how to stratify and decrease the cardiovascular risk according to the evidence based medicine and how to treat dyslipidemias. The lifestyle recommendations are the cornerstone, the pharmacotherapy is mostly started with statins. Ezetimibe and biological treatment of dyslipidemia find their place.

Keywords: dyslipidemia, cardiovascular risk, pharmacotherapy, statins, ezetimibe, fixed combinations.
