One important cardiovascular risk factor in diabetic people is dyslipidemia. This is characterized by low HDL-cholesterol, high serum VLDL-triglycerides, and a preponderance of small, dense LDL. The composition of lipid particles in diabetic dyslipidemia is more atherogenic than in dyslipidemia in general. Additionally, these lipid abnormalities are common in patients with diabetes, and due to this increased cardiovascular risk, it is recommended to aggressively treat the hyperlipidemia. Therefore, intensive lipid-lowering therapy should be used for primary and secondary prevention against macrovascular complications for patients with diabetes. In this review, practical guidelines for management of the dyslipidemia in diabetic patients are suggested.Keywords: Diabetes, dyslipidemiaTurkiye Klinikleri J Int Med Sci 2006, 2(7):39-43
