Summary

Patients who are intolerant of statins in routine practice, but who lack objective evidence of significant harm, will be randomized to receive statins by either n of 1 trials or standard practice. Our hypothesis is that n of 1 trials will improve statin adherence, thereby improving low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels.
