DeDea, Larissa
- Abstract
The article offers the author's insights on the proper administration of statins, and on the difference between Lovaza and over-the-counter (OTC) fish oil supplements. The author says that it is still unknown whether taking statins during evening to lower cholesterol can lead to better results like less heart attacks. She mentions that OTC fish oil supplements are not regulated, while Lovaza is regulated for the treatment of clevated triglycerides.
