Drug Therapy-Statins

Number of Pages 3

A 3 page brief look at statins, which are a category of drug therapy that is frequently used to lower levels of blood cholesterol (Statins, 2004). Because statin drugs are so effective as a drug therapy, they are extremely beneficial in promoting positive patient outcomes since the action of the statin drug helps to clear the bloodstream so that fatty deposits (plaque) will not build up on arterial walls, causing myocardial infarction or stroke. Bibliography lists 4 sources.
