INDICATION: LEROCHOL® (lerodalcibep-liga) is indicated as an adjunct to diet and
exercise to reduce low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) in adults with hypercholesterolemia, including
heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH).
Cardiovascular outcomes trials have demonstrated that reducing LDL-C lowers the risk for major
adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) in adults at increased risk when treated with statins or
monoclonal antibody PCSK9 inhibitors as an add-on to statin therapy.
of adults taking LEROCHOL lowered their LDL-C levels down to target.
People at very high risk aimed to lower their LDL-C by 50% or more and reach levels below 55 mg/dL.
Those at high risk aimed to lower their LDL-C by 50% or more and reach levels below 70 mg/dL.
