Carotid artery disease is a condition characterized by the buildup of plaque in the carotid arteries, which are the blood vessels that supply oxygenated blood to the brain. This buildup can lead to the formation of blood clots, which can block the flow of blood to the brain and cause a stroke. Statins and non-statin lipid-lowering agents are commonly used to treat carotid artery disease by reducing cholesterol levels and preventing the buildup of plaque in the arteries. In this article, we will explore the pros and cons of these medications in the treatment of carotid artery disease.
