Hello, my father suffering from blocks in the heart. Doctors told CABG is not needed. He is on rosuva statin 20, clopidogrel 75, aspirin 75, olemsartin 20, metxl 25 ( for bp ).
He used the above med for 4 months. His total cholesterol has come down slightly below the normal value . Electrolytes are normal . Is it ok to continue the statins. Or any remedy ?

Treatment is ok.. but medicines are not going to open block. As i can see in the prescription( though its not clear). If there is a block in LMCA, then go for bypass surgery. If not, then do a stress thallium first and then take a call after discussing with your doctor
