The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on Friday said it will start a new investigation into the link between statins and heart attacks in patients taking Crestor, the first statin approved for treating heart failure.
The FDA announced the results of a clinical trial in which nearly 1,000 patients who took an older drug, Crestor, suffered a heart attack and a stroke, the results of which were presented Friday at a White House press briefing. The study found that patients taking Crestor had higher levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood, while those taking statins did not.
The results of the trial, which were published in the April issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, are expected to be presented at the American Heart Association's annual meeting.
The new findings show that statins may reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes in patients with high cholesterol or with a low-density lipoprotein cholesterol level, according to the FDA.
The drug, known by the brand name Lipitor, was approved by the FDA in 1990 for use in the treatment of adults with coronary artery disease.
According to the drug's label, it is contraindicated for use in children under the age of 18.
The FDA said that it is still reviewing the results, and it will make a final decision on whether it will continue the trial to assess the benefit-risk profile of statins in patients with heart failure.
The FDA said it would begin its own investigation, although it is not clear how much the new drug will cost.
The study, which looked at patients who took the medication and who had heart failure symptoms, was designed to determine whether patients taking a statin had an increased risk of developing a heart attack and stroke, the FDA said.
The drug is manufactured by AstraZeneca, a global pharmaceutical company.
The study was published in the April issue of the New England Journal of Medicine, which examined data on more than 4,700 patients at risk of heart disease.
Patients who had taken Crestor had a slightly higher risk of developing a heart attack than those who had not.
The FDA said that the results of the study were a benefit-risk finding, which means that it should be taken seriously.
The FDA's approval follows a major study that found that people who took statins had a lower incidence of cardiovascular events and death than those who did not.
The study also found that statins may have a protective effect against the development of heart disease.

The drug was sold under the brand name Crestor and is marketed by AstraZeneca.
According to the FDA, the drug has been available on the internet since 1997 and has been available since 2010. It is sold under the brand name Zocor.
The drug is also available on prescription and as a generic.
It was first approved by the FDA in 2004 and has been available since 2009.
The Food and Drug Administration has issued several warnings about the risk of heart attack and stroke in patients taking statins, including the statement, "These results should be taken seriously, and the safety of patients should be immediately communicated to their physician."

The FDA has not issued specific recommendations about the safety of Crestor.
The FDA said the new study is "an important step toward understanding the benefits and risks of statins," which includes lower cholesterol and weight gain.
The FDA said the new findings "may have a more significant impact on the future development of Crestor," which is the first statin approved for the treatment of adults with heart failure.

AstraZeneca has announced it will no longer make available its Crestor CR 5mg tablet in the UK following the UK launch of the drug on Friday.
Crestor CR 5mg was approved in the UK in November, following discussions with the UK Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA), which is reviewing the drug's safety and efficacy for patients. AstraZeneca confirmed on Monday that the UK has received final approval from the MHRA for the use of Crestor CR 5mg in patients.
In December, AstraZeneca launched the first generic version of Crestor CR 5mg, which is available in a lower-cost tablet at a reduced-dose pack of 90 tablets.
AstraZeneca is continuing its investigation into the safety and efficacy of the Crestor CR 5mg tablet in patients, after it received regulatory approval from the MHRA in November last year.
The UK regulatory body says that the product is "not suitable for patients under the age of 18" and that it should not be available in pharmacies without a valid prescription.
Crestor CR 5mg is the first of its kind for any statin, and its clinical trials have shown that it's safe, effective, and very well tolerated.
AstraZeneca is the only company to have taken the drug on the NHS in the UK, and AstraZeneca is the only company to have taken the drug on the NHS.

LAST month, AstraZeneca, one of the world’s largest pharmaceutical firms, has been given an unprecedented five-year contract to sell its cholesterol-lowering statins to several major drug manufacturers. A recent agreement between the two companies has led to the entry of a new drug class, including Lipitor, a blockbuster drug for heart problems, and Plavix, an anti-cholesterol drug that is used in the treatment of hyperlipidemia. The new drug class is intended to be the next statin drug for the treatment of heart failure.
In late April, a British pharmaceutical company, GlaxoSmithKline, announced a $750 million upfront and $250 million defense agreement with AstraZeneca for the sale of its cholesterol-lowering statins Vioxx and Bydureon. The agreement is expected to be completed in the first half of 2024.
The companies had an agreement to sell their drugs for $9.8 billion in the first quarter of 2024 and $10.8 billion in the second quarter of 2031. A similar agreement was reached between AstraZeneca and Mylan, a German drugmaker, in early April.
AstraZeneca, which has about 25 million prescriptions for the company, has been forced to reduce the number of prescriptions it has filled since 2014 to around 8,000. The new drugs are being evaluated for a possible 10% to 15% decrease in the market share of these drugs. The new drugs are being reviewed by the U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the FDA’s Advisory Committee. The FDA also has approved the first new statin approved in the U. for the treatment of high blood pressure. The company, which has a U. marketing rights to the statins, will also be able to develop the new drugs for the treatment of diabetes.
The deal provides an opportunity for the drugmakers to make more money with a new drug class that includes Lipitor, Plavix, Bydureon, Crestor, Zocor, and Vioxx. The two drugs are already on the market and they could potentially be the biggest sellers. The drug companies said they are looking for a larger amount of money than they currently have. In the event of a change in the drug class, the company would be able to make another $1 billion upfront to the new companies.
The AstraZeneca deal was announced on March 18. The deal was struck with the U. government and was expected to be completed in the first half of 2024.
This new agreement will be an important step in the future development of new statin drugs. The new class of statin drugs is already approved by the FDA in the U. and has been available for use in over 50 European countries for several years. The new drugs are also being reviewed by the U. Food and Drug Administration. The FDA has approved a new class of new statin drugs in the U. that includes the cholesterol-lowering drug Lipitor.
The new class of statins, which will include both Crestor and Zocor, includes the cholesterol-lowering drug Vioxx. The new class of statins will be marketed for use in Europe and the United States, and for the treatment of cardiovascular disease.
The AstraZeneca deal is expected to be completed in the first half of 2024. The company has a U. marketing rights to the cholesterol-lowering drug Vioxx. The new class of cholesterol-lowering drugs will be approved in the U. by the FDA in a similar Phase III clinical trial. The new class of statins is also expected to be launched in the United States in late 2024.
The new drugs will also be sold to other major drug companies that have patents on the cholesterol-lowering drugs. Some of these drugs are already sold in the U. but there is another patent on them.
The new drugs will be reviewed by the FDA and the FDA’s Advisory Committee. The FDA has approved the first new statin drug approved in the U. in a potential 10% decrease in the market share of these drugs. The new drugs will be available from AstraZeneca in the United States for the treatment of high blood pressure.
