A silent but pressing challenge
Around 1 in 5 of people worldwide have high levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C).¹ This condition is a major contributor to cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of death worldwide.² The evidence is clear: reducing LDL-C lowers the risk of major cardiovascular events.2 The reality, however, tells a different story. Studies show that up to 80% of high-risk to very high riskpatients do not achieve their recommended LDL-C targets.2-5
The clinician at the centre
Healthcare professionals must navigate an increasingly complex landscape of evolving guidelines, emerging therapies and individualised risk assessment. While clinical dedication is fundamental, access to tailored tools and resources can further assist in helping patients reach their targets.
Introducing UnlockLDLcontrol
To address this need, the Menarini Group is proud to launch UnlockLDLcontrol, a new portal designed specifically for HCPs, built to consolidate essential resources and. The platform brings together the latest scientific guidance, practical tools and expert insights in one user-friendly space, helping clinicians save time and focus on what matters most: delivering better care.
A commitment that goes beyond the website
UnlockLDLcontrol is designed for healthcare professionals, but what it reflects is broader. It embodies Menarini Group’s ongoing commitment to bridging the gap between scientific evidence and everyday clinical practice. By translating scientific innovation into supportive resources, Menarini Group aims to assist clinicians in optimizing dyslipidaemia management and improving patient care.
