Policy No:
APC 051
Date of Issue:
January 2014
Review Date:
January 2017 unless changes issued by NICE, TV Priorities Committee or new evidence available before this date.
Policy Statement: The NHS Berkshire West APC have reviewed the evidence supporting the clinical and cost effectiveness of lycopene (Ateronon®) for lipid modification. It considers the treatment to be a LOW PRIORITY. Key Points considered: - As this is a food supplement it is difficult to get information other than from websites selling the product. - Does not have product license as is a food supplement. - Evidence for safety and efficacy of lycopene is very limited with only trial of short duration without patient-orientated outcomes. - Does not affect lipid levels. - This policy has been produced as a guide for GPs. Evidence and information was carefully considered and consulted upon by clinicians who concluded that this treatment is not a cost effective use of scarce NHS resources. There are situations where this policy may not apply to an individual patient due to their clinical exceptionality. This policy statement does not overrule an individual GPs clinical decision making and therefore each GP would be need to make the final decision on whether treatment is a cost-effective use of their CCG budget
