Clopidogrel causing duodenitis?
I've been taking clopidogrel, amlodipine and
statins
for years now. Over the last year or so I have developed inflammation of the duodenum, confirmed by endoscopy. The consultant wrote "duodenitis caused by clopidogrel" on his summary of findings.

Statin Use Is Associated with Better Prognosis of Patients with Prostate Cancer after Definite Therapies:
Statins
, which target liver production, can also prevent PCa cell generation. It seems that a lipophilic statin has the best chance of achieving that. I have been on 40mg Simvastatin for 17 years.

Can't get a quote for Holiday Insurance until I specify what the medication I'm taking following Bypass surgery is for.
I tried to explain that I was taking
Statins
but not to lower my Cholesterol as its always been low I'm taking it as it guards against plaque breaking off the Artery walls and it's a proven anti inflammatory. I just gave up on that one. "Yes I'm taking it to lower my Cholesterol!"

Statins and Liver Disease
My understanding however is that
Statins
are good for liver disease as they reduce inflammation, My Gastroenterologist indicated this to me. I have also read and researched a bit on this and am hesitant to get off it. How do you guys feel about
statins
for liver disease? Thanks!

Has anyone else stopped taking a daily statin?
However, I'm no fool and I know that
Statins
will definitely reduce the potential risk of plaque building up going forward and blocking my Arteries.

When to take your medication?
Statins
can lower levels of ‘bad’ cholesterol by slowing down its production in the liver, where it is normally produced between midnight and 6am.

Statins and PBC
have recently been prescribed
statins
. I’ve read that
statins
shouldn’t be taken by anyone with liver disease and wonder if others have experience of this.

PAD after Pmr
He said its not bad enough for a stent as he can feel all my pulses, and said I had to go on aspirin and
statins
. Well I've always used complementary medicine, and never taken much medication until I got Pmr. So this has knocked me for 6. Apparently I've got to take them for life.

Statins aid PCa control?
Is there a specific statin(s) that are helpful with PCa? One was mentioned a while ago, but I don't recall the name. My husband has been taking Pravastatin for high cholesterol for many years, but I don't think this was what was mentioned on this site. Any info?

Statins and ET
My GP has recommended I start taking
statins
. I emailed the specialist nurse and she has replied saying the GP will have taken everything into account. I have ET and take hydroxy and blood thinners. I have high risks of heart attack and strokes.

Inclisiran
The drug is called inclisiran and has already been in use for patients with heart and circulatory problems and continue to have high bad cholesterol levels despite
