» Anthony Lee - Results of the ENHANCE Trial

A recent study has shown the Zetia and Vytorin may not actually lower cholesterol enough to cut down the risk for a heart attack or stroke. What do you think of this recent development? Do you or someone you know use either of these drugs, and if so, would you or that person stop taking it?

Along the lines of this controversy is the issue of drug advertising. Have you seen advertisements for Zetia and Vytorin? What do you think of their claims? Do you think there is any issue with direct marketing to patients?
