Heart Pill Stopping Study
A randomized trial of 1,880 adults aged 70 and older with chronic conditions but no prior cardiovascular disease found that stopping statins carried a small added risk over two years, though longer-term safety remains uncertain. Across follow-up of up to four years, heart attack, ischemic stroke or death occurred in about 13% of those assigned to stop treatment, compared with 9% who continued. Researchers said decisions about stopping should be made individually with a healthcare professional.
