Do Statins Save Lives? Doctors Don’t Agree!

How good are statins for preventing heart attacks in primary prevention? More important, do statins save lives? Read surprising new results.

Testimony:

One of the most surprising findings of this study is that the association between LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) and heart disease is “weak or inconsistent.”

My brother was at his doctor's office & the doc recommended a statin. My bro asked if his cholesterol was high. Doctor's answer: no, statins are a preventative. My brother's next question: "are you taking a statin?" Doc's answer: "NO." Response from my brother, "then why should I?"

End of discussion. My brother has been a medical malpractice attorney for over 40 yrs with a degree in biology from Harvard & a law degree from UTexas. - [fren on another forum]

I looked up one brand and it said not to take longer than 30 days or if on a blood thinner. Any thoughts?

I take it on recommendation of my doctor -- and I have for years, with no issues.
