An increase in the level of cholesterol day by day is easily seen in most people just because of poor life style, food with high cholesterol, lack of physical work, etc. There are lots of molecules available, which lower down the cholesterol level. In this field a new molecule has been introduced that is bimpedoic acid. Researches indicate that bempedoic acid has the same mechanism of action as statins, which means that it also inhibits the HMG-CoA reductase enzyme. This letter to the editor is my best collection of published scientific data on bempedoic acid till now. It also includes the chemistry, pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic parameters of the mentioned new molecule.
