Use Strategies to Dispense Non-Statins Safely

April 2023

You’ll hear questions about using NON-statins to lower bad cholesterol (LDL).

Statins (rosuvastatin, etc) are still first-line to treat high cholesterol...since they reduce the risk of cardiovascular (CV) events (heart attack, etc) and are safe and low cost.
