Statin Nocebo and Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM)
In this week's episode, Dr Peter Larsen and Dr Stuart Butterly discuss Statin Nocebo and Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM).
They explain that statins are an important primary and secondary prevention measure. A big issue for patients is the side-effects from statins. However, Stuart discusses a study that revealed that it might not be the statin, but the act of taking medication that can result in these symptoms (known as a 'nocebo effect'). Peter also outlines his approach for patients that present with side-effects from statins.
Peter and Stuart also discuss 5 things to consider when it comes HCM, the most common type of hereditary heart disease.
