Statination2

 

Bear in mind that we do not know how much negative trial data remains unpublished so we do not have a final answer. You need to look at the sources above and decide for yourself what you choose to believe.

 

As a GP I often need to stop statins due to side effects and I no longer start people on them, unless they make an informed choice to do that, following advice of a secondary care consultant after a cardiovascular event. I, and many people are still waiting for all the trial data to be passed to Cochrane for analysis. The BMJ is currently campaigning for this and I support that campaign.
