In this episode, I talk about the most commonly used statins. In my practice I see simvastatin, atorvastatin, rosuvastatin, and pravastatin used most frequent.
In addition, I also discuss why statins are dosed at night, possible side effects, and important drug interactions.
Statins can help lower cholesterol and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events like heart attack. I mentioned cvriskcalculator.com on the podcast and wanted to give that link to you.
Hope you enjoy the episode!
