Statin associated adverse reactions in Latin America: a scoping review.

We identified differences in the frequency of ADRs in both observational studies and RCTs from LATAM countries. This could be due to the absence of standard definitions and reporting of ADRs as well as differences among the study's interventions, population characteristics or design. The variability of ADRs and the absence of definitions are similar to studies from other geographical locations. Further placebo-controlled trials and real-world data registries with universal definitions should follow.
