If you stop Praluent treatment, your low-density lipoprotein (LDL) level may rise. (LDL cholesterol is also known as “bad” cholesterol.) High cholesterol levels may put you at risk for heart attack, stroke, or other heart disease.
If you’re thinking about stopping your Praluent treatment, it’s important that you first talk with your doctor. They may recommend a cholesterol medication other than Praluent.
