Hypercholesterolaemia treated with inclisiran

Abstract

In this case report, a 31-year-old woman with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) underwent treatment with statins and PCSK9 inhibitor but had to discontinue due to elevated creatine kinase levels and neurological and muscular side effects. In 2021, the patient received inclisiran therapy, the first known instance of its application in Denmark. No side effects were reported, and LDL cholesterol levels were significantly reduced. This case report highlights the potential of inclisiran as an effective and well-tolerated treatment for individuals with heterozygous FH.
