Cholesterol Guidlines
Groups that may benefit from statin therapy
- individuals with clinical atherosclerotic cardivascular disease (ASCVD) - patients with primary LDL-C elevations >190 mg/dL - patients 40-75 years old with DM, LDL 70-189mg/dL - patients 40-75 years old without clinical ASCVD or diabetes, LDL 70-189 mg/dL and estimated 10-year ASCVD risk >7.5%
I recommend going through the ACC/AHA cholesterol guidelines
