Where are we now with changing cholesterol levels to reduce cardiovascular disease risk? Keith Fox (British Cardiovascular Society president) asks Rory Collins (professor of Medicine and Epidemiology and co-director of the Clinical Trial Service, Nuffield Department of Clinical Medicine, University of Oxford). Professor Collins talks about the evidence behind altering high- and low-density lipoproteins, why the issue of myopathy has been overstated, and our best treatment options now and for the future.
