A major report on statins, a popular cholesterol-lowering medication, has found that almost all of the listed side-effects, are not actually caused by the drug. The meta-study was published in the Lancet this week - and the researchers behind it now say they want regulators to change the warnings on drug labels. Anthony Keech is a professor of medicine, cardiology and epidemiology at the University of Sydney and one of the report's co-authors. He says the findings will be welcome news to many people.
