LEQVIO is a medicine that’s given by injection for high bad cholesterol by your doctor or health care provider. Since LEQVIO is a twice-yearly treatment (after 2 initial doses), it can fit neatly into your twice-yearly doctor’s visits. You should continue taking your other cholesterol medicines as instructed by your health care provider.
