Summary
Hypolipidemics are a group of pharmaceuticals with an expressive portion on pharmaceuticals costs. Analysis of their consumption has been an object of repeated studies in our republic as well abroad. The present data on hypolipidemic drug utilization in 2000–2007 were obtained from the database of the State Institute of Drug Control. Utilization was expressed in defined daily doses (DDD) according to the ATC/DDD system, costs in Czech crowns. Utilization was expressed in relative values – DDD per 1 000 inhabitants per day (DID). The utilization of fibrates in the period under study is unchanged. The utilization of statins increased from 9.4 DID (2000) to 100 DID (2007). The maximal expenditures on hypolipidemic therapy were observed in 2005 (3 thousand million CZK). Statins are on the forefront of sales of medicines in the CR (2003–2006 – 1th place simvastatin, 2007 – 1th place atorvastatin (1th place in the world since 2001)).
Key words:
drug utilization – hypolipidaemics – statins – fibrates – ezetimibe
