The ACC Statin Intolerance App guides clinicians through the process of managing and treating patients who report muscle symptoms while on statin therapy. Clinicians can use the app to:

• Answer questions to evaluate possible intolerance to a patient's current statin prescription.
• Follow steps to manage and treat a patient who reports muscle symptoms on a statin.
• Compare statin characteristics and drug interactions to inform management of LDL-related risk.

The information and recommendations in this app are derived from the 2013 ACC/AHA Guideline on the Treatment of Blood Cholesterol to Reduce Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Risk in Adults, and the prescribing information for each statin. It was developed as part of the American College of Cardiology "LDL: Address the Risk" Initiative and  further refined and vetted by physicians, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, pharmacists and other relevant specialties; and through user testing in care settings with patients.
