Guest guest Posted January 9, 2006 Report Posted January 9, 2006 My stepdad has agreed to half his dose of Lipitor. He went to 10mg today. He is petrified he will have a heart attack. What is the lo down on what he should be doing to help him not have problems as it is phased out of his system? How long should he be on the 10mg before halving that dose? My mom put him on Vitmain C, Flax and CoEQ10. Should we be having his cholesterol checked every X amount of weeks? No doctor is supportive of this so my mom and I are sort of feeling like we are playing doctor and do no want to screw up. I am so excited though - he was on Lipitor 7 years and some other statin before that we recently found out. PRAYERFULLY we with get to some degree the man back we once knew. Thanks, Lara Quote
