Al-Marsad Newspaper: A consultant in cardiology and arterial catheterization, Dr. Khaled Al-Nimr, answered the question, “Do cholesterol drugs increase the incidence of diabetes?”
Al-Nimr said in a tweet via his Twitter account: “Statins, such as Lipitor, Crestor, cholesterol-lowering drugs increase the incidence of diabetes by a “slightly” percentage in the long term, but their benefit remains much greater than their side effects.
Statins, such as Lipitor, Crestor … etc., increase the incidence of diabetes by a “slightly” percentage in the long run, but their benefits are much greater than their side effects.
