SYPOSIUM OBJECTIVES
Upon completion of this program, attendees should be able to:
• Discuss the effects of obesity on cardiovascular risk factors, diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia and the necessity for early therapeutic intervention
• Identify sociocultural and psychological factors that may influence the development of obesity and the responses that may influence the treatment of obesity
• Discuss the current guidelines for optimal management of lipids and elevated blood pressure in the high risk patient
• Evaluate the role of combination therapy in the pharmacologic treatment of hypertension and lipid management
• Identify a combination of pharmacologic agents and lifestyle changes required to meet guideline targets for the patient with one or more of the metabolic syndrome cluster of risk factors: obesity, dyslipidemia, diabetes or glucose intolerance, and/or hypertension
