Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Lipitor®, Zocor®, and Crestor® are statin drugs commonly taken to lower cholesterol and prevent heart disease. Statins lower cholesterol by different amounts in different patients and sometimes statins cause muscle pain, cramps, or weakness. This study will examine genetic differences in the blood of patients taking statins to predict both how well the statins lower cholesterol, and whether muscle discomfort occurs. Finding such genetic connections is the key to developing genetic tests that might eventually help determine which statin is best for a patient. About 1000 people will be in the study.
