Pneumonia and Statins Nevada City CA

A new study demonstrates that older people are more likely to get pneumonia if they use statin drugs. Statin drugs are the current rage for treating people with "high cholesterol". If you have not yet read my Cholesterol Article, please do--this article delineates why cholesterol in Nevada City CA is not a problem, it is a symptom.
