Adults 75 and older who stopped statins had similar three-year survival, trial finds

red yeast rice extract is a shitty, non-prescription, low-dose(?) alternative

It's already known that on the whole, people who take statins don't live longer than people who don't, but that could just be because people who don't take them don't need them...
