From Cholesterol to Dyslipidemia: Translating the 2026 Multi-Society Guideline into Clinical Practice | Month 3 Podcast

Knowing the guidelines is one thing. Putting them into practice is another. In the third installment of this four-part CME/CE-accredited series, the conversation shifts from risk assessment to treatment — tackling the clinical decisions that define how we manage patients with dyslipidemia day to day.

This episode covers the new lipid treatment targets established by the 2026 Multi-Society Dyslipidemia Guideline, updated statin initiation thresholds, treatment goals across primary and secondary prevention, strategies for intensifying therapy when patients aren’t at goal, and the growing role of multidisciplinary care in optimizing long-term outcomes.

This episode is a companion piece to the Month 3 webinar, “Goals Are Back! LDL-C, Non-HDL-C, and ApoB in Clinical Practice.” We encourage you to check it out as the two were built to work together. WATCH WEBINAR
