I understand that the NHS has approved at least five statins for prescription; Lipitor, Lescol, Lipostat, Crestor, and Zocor.
However, the only brand I hear actually being prescribed is Lipitor, a member of the "atorvastatin" family of statins. Is anyone being prescribed a different statin, and in particular Crestor, a member of the "rosuvastatin" family of statins?
Thanks.
I’m on Lipitor. 40ng
