I was told by someone that once you start taking a statin drug - lipitor, zocor, etc -- that you can never stop taking them. Is this true?? I'm gonna knock my doctor into the middle of next week if it's true. I'm trying to eliminate my lipitor and replace it with red yeast rice. I've been cutting my 10mg pill in half (5mg daily) and taking 4 600mg red yeast rice capsules a day.
I go in for my yearly physical next week, and if my cholesterol numbers are still good, I want to eliminate the lipitor and just take the red yeast rice.
Anybody know about this?
Thanks,
