▶ link In place of sketchy cholesterol drugs.

Picture for Lipid Therapy (you'll want to see this if Sketchy didn't work for you) I had a really tough time with Sketchy Pharm for this topic, there was too much going on. Found this video on YouTube. **All credits go to them**. I compiled this and typed it up because I didn't want to rewatch the video every time to revise. ▶ link ▶ This is missing PCSK9 and omega acids ▶ link

This is a sketchy-like video, but at least for me, is way more comprehensible than the actual sketchy video of all the flying ships/Monsters attacking: ▶ link It's not quite as detailed but it hits a ton of the major points

So there was one called Pharm450 which was super good. Unfortunately, they only made 2 videos (they claimed they were going to make more but guess it never happened): Statins/Fibrates/Niacin/etc: ▶ link Sodium channel blockers: ▶ link There's also speed pharmacology which gives crystal clear explanations for all the drugs, but won't have visual mnemonics. In terms of visual mnemonics, things are super limited for it…

Just to add for people that want a visual mnemonic: ▶ link Around the 3 min mark is where they discuss fibrates and around 3:55 is where they discuss gallstones as a side effect

I'm a huge Sketchy fan and SketchyPharm was key for me, but I liked ▶ link much better than Sketchy's Lipids Drug section. If you're looking for understanding the lipid pathways (which Sketchy does but this video does not), I liked this ▶ link and ▶ link Specific to Sketchy Pharm, the ones I liked the most were probably autonomics and neuro/psych drugs.
