- •
Ten-year follow-up of 67 young adults with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH).
- •
One in 4 did not use statins and only 9% had an LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) ≤2.5 mmol/L.
- •
LDL-C was significantly lower when time since last consultation was ≤2 years.
- •
Yearly consultations for young adults with FH seem warranted.
