Cardiovascular, renal, and metabolic (CVRM) diseases affect hundreds of millions globally. In the future, the prevalence of CVRM diseases is expected to increase. Those affected are often living with multiple CVRM conditions, increasing the complexity of care. And yet, these diseases are too often managed in isolation. In this STAT article, Mina Makar, RPh highlights the urgent need for a more integrated approach to CVRM care, alongside the scientific potential of combination therapies.
