| What Is FH? | ||
| The good news is that FH is also extremely responsive to lipid-lowering therapy and so of detected and treated, many unnecessary early deaths from heart attack can be avoided. Treatment is very cost effective and simple, offering FH individuals normal, healthy life-expectancy. It is important to identify relatives of people with FH to determine if they also have FH, a process called ‘family cascade screening’, and to ensure appropriate treatment if needed. |
