  • Patients living with HIV (PLWH) are at high risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD)
  • Eligible PLWH should receive statins for ASCVD risk reduction according to current guidelines
  • Studies suggest that statins are underprescribed in PLWH, but comparisons to uninfected patients and assessments of statin intensity have not occurred

Objective

To determine the influence of HIV infection on appropriate statin prescribing for ASCVD risk reduction
