Statins cause or worsen diabetes.

This might be TRUE...to a certain extent. But it doesn't mean patients should stop taking statins or prescribers should stop writing for them.

We’ve talked about statins and diabetes before...but a new study is putting the topic in the news again.

Recall that patients taking Crestor (rosuvastatin) 20 mg in the JUPITER trial had a slight increase in the risk of developing diabetes compared to those taking placebo.
