Therefore, it was thought that if a medication could increase “good” cholesterol or lower “bad” cholesterol it would help keep patients safe from heart attacks. Over the years there have been several large clinical trials that proved this is not always true. Multiple medications have been made and tested that have greatly improved blood test numbers without reducing heart attacks or strokes.
For more than twenty years, researchers studying cardiovascular medicine have tried to make a promising class of medications known as CETP inhibitors. The original goal of CETP inhibitors was to drastically increase “good” cholesterol, also known as high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), while at the same time lowering low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), or “bad” cholesterol.

ZITUVIO, approved by the FDA in mid-October 2023, is a DPP-4 inhibitor containing sitagliptin as its active ingredient. ZITUVIMET followed shortly after. Combining sitagliptin and metformin in one pill, ZITUVIMET was approved on November 3, providing patients with a convenient option for dual therapy in managing type 2 diabetes.
Januvia and ZITUVIO are medications designed to manage blood sugar levels in people with type 2 diabetes. Both contain an active ingredient called Sitagliptin. Januvia gained approval from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on October 16, 2006, while ZITUVIO received its approval more recently on Oct 20, 2023.
Allergies are caused by an over-reactive immune system to substances that are typically harmless, like cat hair or grass pollen. Your body mistakenly perceives these substances as threats, triggering allergic reactions. They are a wide array of allergies, each with distinct causes and associated symptoms or responses.
Diabetes and glaucoma are not often talked about in the same conversation. Yet long‑term studies have repeatedly found that people with diabetes have a higher chance of developing glaucoma over time. This comes from large studies tracking eye health in thousands of patients.
A clear, concise breakdown of the 2026 ACC/AHA Cholesterol Guidelines, including PREVENT‑ASCVD, new LDL‑C targets, statin recommendations, and clinical takeaways.
In a review of 23 large randomized trials (150,000+ people), 62 of 66 labeled side effects occurred just as often in people taking placebo, including memory problems, fatigue, sleep issues, mood changes, and erectile dysfunction.
A big 2025 study shows that simvastatin sticks to a muscle protein called RyR1, the calcium "valve" in your muscles. This makes the valve leaky, letting small amounts of calcium escape into muscle cells even when you're resting.
Anticholinergic drugs are used for many common medical conditions, from overactive bladder to allergies, asthma, and even depression. But in recent years, researchers have raised concerns about whether long-term use of these medications might be linked to memory decline and dementia risk, especially in older adults.
Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that damage the optic nerve, which connects the eye to the brain and carries visual signals. This damage typically results from increased pressure inside the eye, though it can occur even at normal pressure levels in some cases.
Dry mouth, or xerostomia (zeer-oh-STOH-mee-ah), happens when your mouth doesn’t produce enough saliva to stay moist. Saliva is essential for a healthy and comfortable mouth. It helps clean your mouth, moistens and softens food, and makes swallowing and digestion easier.
