Yes, it in Kaplan Cardio Chapter under Lipid Mx.

In ur 2nd question there are 2 RF - Smoking & Controlled HTN

(But since his HDL is Good here you can Substract 1 of the RF ) so now he only has 1 RF

so -- w/ 1 RF + LDL of 170 (Diet if LDL 160 & Statin if LDL > 190) --> Diet Only

give him statin 4 the second pt too

[ArchivalUser]

yes, you both right

Ben, i found this info, thanks

[ArchivalUser]

actually I said it was Diet only for ur 2nd Case

[ArchivalUser]

oooh, my bad, I guess I am tired, yes ben start him only on diet, cause statins must be started in second case only after LDL reaches 190 and above
