摘要

Background: This study aimed to identify potential predictors of medication adherence and persistence with statin-ezetimibe combinational lipid-lowering therapy (LLT) as a separate pill combination in a real-world setting in Japan. Methods?and?Results: Patients newly switched to statin-ezetimibe combinational LLT from statin monotherapy were identified within a Japanese national pharmacy claims database during January 2015 to April 2018. Adherence and persistence were measured by the proportion of days covered (PDC), time to treatment discontinuation and persistence rate at 1 year. A stepwise multivariate logistic regression model and Cox proportional hazards regression model were used to explore potential predictors associated with adherence and persistence, respectively. Among 6,921 patients, 71.9% were adherent (PDC ≥80%), and 83.6% were persistent at 1 year after initiation. Patients aged ≤54 years and ≥75 years were prone to be more non-adherent. Secondary prevention was associated with better adherence and longer persistence. Concomitant use of medications for depression/anxiety was associated with shorter persistence, whereas use of antihypertensive drugs was associated with better adherence and persistence. Conclusions: Age, concomitant use of certain classes of medications (or the existence of these diseases) and secondary prevention were associated with adherence and persistence of statin-ezetimibe combinational LLT. Given that dyslipidemia is a chronic disease requiring life-long control, active interventions are required for patients with poor adherence and persistence.
