Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Fran: I'm not sure that statins reverse plaque. The Reversal Trial which used 80 Mg of good ole Lippy reduced arterial plaque by a whopping 0.4% after 18 months. That is about as insignificat as it gets. Provacol in the same trial had a 2.4% increase in plaque. Can you imagine how many spaced out people there would be if everyone was on 80mg of Lipitor, there would be A big boom to the wheel chair industry.
