Charting your path to cholesterol success
Living life with consistently high bad cholesterol can be hard. Even though you don’t feel it, you know it can affect your health long-term. It's possible you've already tried changing your diet, increasing your activity, and are already on a statin, and still haven't been able to meet your bad cholesterol goal. But, with LEQVIO® by your side, the journey may get a little smoother.
LEQVIO is taken with a healthy diet and a statin, so it’s still important to make lifestyle changes if you want to see the best results. Sometimes, it helps to start off small, like swapping out 1 food for a similar but healthier alternative. Discuss with your doctor before making any lifestyle changes.
