NEW SOLUTION TO HELP CONTROL “BAD” CHOLESTEROL (LDL-C) - SMALL INTERFERING RNA (siRNA) TECHNOLOGY NOW AVAILABLE AT THE AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL HOSPITAL (AIH)

21/08/2026

Hyperlipidemia often progresses silently but can increase the risk of atherosclerosis and severe cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction and stroke. Therefore, long-term and target-oriented blood lipid control, especially of LDL-C (bad cholesterol), plays a crucial role in protecting cardiovascular health. 

According to Dr. Truong Da Uyen, Specialist Level I, Head of the Outpatient & General Health Check-up Department at AIH, for many patients, even after lifestyle modifications or medication use, LDL-C levels still fail to reach the recommended targets. In such cases, physicians may consider adding appropriate treatments.

What is small interfering RNA (siRNA) technology?

This is a modern treatment approach that acts in the liver to reduce the production of PCSK9 protein. As a result, the liver increases its ability to clear LDL-cholesterol from the blood, helping to support the control of LDL-C according to treatment targets.

Convenient treatment schedule with minimal side effects 

Following the first dose and the second dose 3 months later, the medication is maintained every 6 months as prescribed by the doctor, contributing to long-term treatment adherence.

WHICH CASES CAN BE CONSIDERED FOR TREATMENT?

Doctors may consider prescribing it for patients who:

  • Have not reached their LDL-C target despite lipid-lowering drug treatment 

  • Are intolerant to certain lipid-lowering medications 

  • Have a high cardiovascular risk and require long-term LDL-C control according to treatment guidelines 

  • Prescriptions will be based on the health condition, LDL-C level, and cardiovascular risk of each individual patient.

NEW SOLUTION TO SUPPORT BAD CHOLESTEROL (LDL-C) CONTROL NOW AVAILABLE AT AIH
