can in take zocor with omega-3?

Answer 1

Fish Oil Beats Cholesterol-Lowering Drugs: Did you know? *Omega-3 fish oil is 45 percent more effective than cholesterol-lowering statins, such as Lipitor and Zocor, in preventing fatal heart attacks and 77 percent more effective than statin drugs in reducing the risk of dying from any cause! That's the stunning conclusion of a review of 97 studies by Swiss researchers at the University Hospital in Basel Switzerland, and published in the Archives of Internal Medicine in April, 2005. Yet, more than 15 million Americans take statins, with potential adverse effects, when fish oil appears to be a far better, safer heart drug and all-round lifesaver.
