Steady increase in the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a serious public health problem, since CKD potentially leads to the development of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) that requires high-cost replacement therapy and is closely associated with increased risk of developing cardiovascular diseases (CVD), which are the cause of death in most patients. Progression of renal dysfunction and development of CVD are significantly affected by hyper- and dyslipidemia. This review contains results of studies evaluating the effect of hypolipidemic therapy on reduction of cardiovascular risk and slowdown of renal dysfunction in patients with CKD at pre-dialysis and dialysis stages of renal failure, as well as in patients with kidney transplant. In addition, recommendations on nutrition and new therapeutic approaches to lipid-lowering therapy in patients with CKD, as well as prospects for the usage of new hypolipidemic drugs are also presented.
