RESUMEN
Los estudios de prevención primaria y secundaria han demostrado que la niacina mejora el perfil de lípidos y reduce la morbimortalidad coronaria.
Objetivo: Investigar la eficacia y seguridad de la niacina en dosis de 1.5 y 3.0 g al día en pacientes con cardiopatía isquémica y dislipidemia.
Material y métodos: Se incluyeron 61 pacientes de ambos sexos y con edades de 30 a 70 años. Se eliminaron 32 pacientes: 18 por reacciones adversas y 14 por motivos no relacionados con el fármaco.
Resultados: En los 29 pacientes que terminaron el estudio, la niacina produjo reducciones significativas, dependientes de dosis, en las concentraciones de colesterol total, C-LDL, triglicéridos, apolipoproteína B y la relación C-LDL/CHDL y aumentó de manera significativa el nivel de C-HDL. La lipoproteína(a) disminuyó con ambas dosis, pero sólo alcanzó significado estadístico con la dosis de 3.0 g. En once pacientes (38%), las variables del perfil lipoproteico alcanzaron los valores ideales, y en 15 pacientes (52%), la relación C-LDL/C-HDL fue menor o igual a 3.5 al final del tratamiento.
Conclusiones: Los resultados indican que la niacina es tolerada por el 62% de los pacientes; por tanto, constituye una alternativa terapéutica efectiva y de bajo costo.
