| Popis: |
Acute pancreatitis can rarely be caused also by drugs. Several substances from different drug classes have been associated with the occurrence of acute pancreatitis. Regarding the class of the hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA-reductase-inhibitors (statins) case-reports have been published in the literature in association with each individual statin. We present a 60-years-old male who developed twice an acute pancreatitis while being treated with pravastatin. Because some case reports describe the reoccurrence of acute pancreatitis after exposure to a different statin, recommendations for further therapy remain complex. There are also case reports of pancreatitis associated with fibrates and information on rare adverse reactions associated with ezetimibe is sparse. |
