Last December my PCP decided to double my dosage of simvastatin in effort to drop my LDL numbers. Six months of 40mg instead of 20mg lowered the numbers slightly, but if you look at what my numbers were last May on just the 20mg dosage, you’ll see they are pretty much indentical to this round of numbers on a 40 mg dosage. Seventy-five dollars later, his learned opinion, come back in 6 months….
