Yintoni iLipitor?

I-Lipitor (atorvastatin) isetyenziselwa ukunyanga kunye nokuhlisa amanqanaba aphezulu e-cholesterol. Ngokwenza njalo, unokunciphisa umngcipheko wokuhlaselwa yintliziyo kunye nokubetha.

I-Lipitor kunye neminye imimiselo ibhloko ye-lipoprotein (LDL) ye-cholesterol encinci kwisibindi. I-LDL yaziwa ngokuba yi-cholesterol "embi". Amanqanaba aphezulu e-LDL akubeka emngciphekweni wokubetha, isifo sentliziyo, kunye nezinye iimeko zentliziyo.

Izigidi zabantu baseMelika zixhomekeke kumayeza e-statin afana neLipitor yokulawula nokunyanga i-cholesterol ephezulu.

Ziziphi iziphumo ebezingalindelekanga zeLipitor?

Njengalo naliphi na iyeza, iLipitor inokubangela iziphumo ebezingalindelekanga. Izifundo zibonise unxibelelwano olunokwenzeka phakathi kweLipitor kunye neziphumo ebezingalunganga, ezinje ngohlobo lweswekile 2.

Umngcipheko ubonakala umkhulu kubantu esele benengozi yesifo seswekile kwaye abangakhange bathathe manyathelo okhuseleko, njengokutshintsha indlela yokuphila kunye nokuthatha amayeza amiselwe ngugqirha njenge-metformin.

Ezinye iziphumo ebezingalindelekanga zeLipitor zibandakanya:

• intlungu edibeneyo
• umqolo obuhlungu
• iintlungu zesifuba
• ukudinwa
• Ukuphelelwa ngumdla wokutya
• usulelo
• ukuphuthelwa
• urhudo
• irhashalala
• isisu esibuhlungu
• isicaphucaphu
• usulelo lomchamo
• ukuchama kabuhlungu
• ubunzima bokuchama
• ukudumba kweenyawo kunye namaqatha
• ukulimala kwemisipha
• ukulahleka kwememori okanye ukudideka
• ukwanda kwenqanaba leswekile yegazi

I-Lipitor kunye neswekile

Ngo-1996, i-US Food and Drug Administration (i-FDA) yamkela iLipitor ngenjongo yokunciphisa i-cholesterol. Emva kokukhutshwa kwayo, abaphandi bafumanise ukuba abantu abaninzi abakunyango lwe-statin bafunyaniswe benesifo seswekile sesi-2 xa kuthelekiswa nabantu abangekho kunyango lwe-statin.

Ngo-2012, ulwazi oluhlaziyiweyo lokhuseleko kwiklasi eyaziwayo yeziyobisi. Bongeze ulwazi olongezelelekileyo oluchaza ukuba "umngcipheko omncinci owandayo" wamazinga aphezulu eswekile yegazi kunye nohlobo lwe-2 yeswekile kuye kwaxelwa kubantu abasebenzisa ii-statins.

Kwisilumkiso sayo, nangona kunjalo, i-FDA ivume ukuba iyakholelwa izibonelelo ezilungileyo kwintliziyo yomntu kunye nempilo yentliziyo ngaphandle komngcipheko owandayo wesifo seswekile.

I-FDA yongeze ukuba abantu abakwiimimiselo kufuneka basebenze ngokusondeleyo kunye noogqirha babo ukujonga amanqanaba eswekile yegazi.

Ngubani osemngciphekweni?

Nabani na osebenzisa i-Lipitor-okanye ichiza elifanayo lokunciphisa i-cholesterol-unokuba semngciphekweni wokuhlaselwa sisifo seswekile. Abaphandi abayiqondi ngokupheleleyo into ebangela umngcipheko wesifo seswekile.

Kubalulekile ukuba uqaphele, nangona kunjalo, ukuba abaphandi kunye noMbutho weSifo seSwekile waseMelika bathe umngcipheko wesifo seswekile mncinci kakhulu kwaye ungaphezulu kakhulu kwezibonelelo zentliziyo entle.

Asinguye wonke umntu othatha amayeza e-statin aya kuphuhlisa iziphumo ebezingalindelekanga, ezinje ngohlobo lweswekile 2. Nangona kunjalo, abantu abathile banokuba nomngcipheko owandayo. Aba bantu baquka:

• abantu ababhinqileyo
• abantu abangaphezu kwama-65
• abantu abathatha ngaphezulu kwelinye iyeza lokunciphisa i-cholesterol
• abantu abanezifo ezikhoyo zesibindi okanye zezintso
• abantu abatya izixa ezingaphezulu komndilili zotywala

Kuthekani ukuba sele ndinesifo seswekile?

Uphando lwangoku alucebisi ukuba abantu abanesifo seswekile kufuneka baphephe amayeza e-statin. Ngo-2014, i-American Diabetes Association (ADA) yaqala ukucebisa ukuba bonke abantu abaneminyaka engama-40 ubudala okanye ngaphezulu abanesifo seswekile sesi-2 baqaliswe kwi-statin nokuba azikho ezinye izinto ezinobungozi ezikhoyo.

Inqanaba lakho le-cholesterol kunye nezinye izinto zempilo ziya kugqiba ukuba kuya kufuneka ufumane unyango oluphezulu okanye olulinganiselweyo.

Abanye abantu abanesifo seswekile sesi-2 kunye nesifo se-atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD), i-ASCVD inokubakho. Kule meko, i-ADA icebisa into ethile okanye njengenxalenye yerejimeni yonyango lwe-antihyperglycemic.

Ukuba uhlala nesifo seswekile, unokuwunciphisa kakhulu umngcipheko weengxaki zentliziyo ngokuthatha la mayeza. Nangona kunjalo, kuya kufuneka uqhubeke nokwenza utshintsho kwindlela yokuphila enokuthi iphucule isifo sakho seswekile, isidingo sakho se-insulin, kunye nemfuno yakho yemimiselo.

Iindlela zokunciphisa umngcipheko

Indlela efanelekileyo yokuphepha le mpembelelo yeLipitor kukunciphisa imfuno yakho yokunciphisa amayeza e-cholesterol kunye nokwenza utshintsho kwindlela yokuphila ukunciphisa umngcipheko wesifo sikashukela.
