ABSTRACT
Dyslipidemia management in situations like pregnancy, in diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) disease, chronic liver disease, and in the elderly are challenging scenarios. Pregnancy is a contraindication for many drugs. The interaction of various drugs used in HIV infection and rheumatoid arthritis makes it even more difficult to treat with conventional and approved drugs for dyslipidemia. Elderly and chronic renal failure patients often do not tolerate the drugs very well and the data of dyslipidemia management is very different. Lastly, COVID-19 is a unique scenario where clear information is yet to be provided. In this manuscript, the current understanding and available data on the treatment of dyslipidemia in these special situations are discussed.
