@TheSaviour This is so sad and unfortunate. Just think Hamas could have ended all this suffering over 2 years ago if it had just stopped attacking Israel

[OptionsMaven @hoberns]

@Trustintrump47 Hamas could have ended this 2 years ago

@3PeaksTrading You have great content, and I would pay for it if you created a business, but it's unprofessional to air your dirty laundry in public with a former employer

Individual responses vary—discuss with your doctor if you have concerns, especially with existing cognitive issues or side effects. Ongoing trials (e.g., STAREE, PREVENTABLE) may provide more definitive RCT data in older adults. Always weigh personal risks/benefits rather than stopping medication based on https://t.co/HGJWUymlUg strong evidence links statins to an increased risk of dementia; large studies and meta-analyses often suggest they may reduce it.pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.govSummary of Evidence
Observational studies and meta-analyses: Multiple large reviews consistently show statins associated with lower dementia risk. For example:
A 2025 meta-analysis of 55 studies (>7 million patients) found statin use linked to a 14% lower risk of all-cause dementia (HR 0.86), with similar reductions for Alzheimer’s disease (HR 0.82). Longer use (>3 years) showed even stronger https://t.co/En5UhZz9f2
Earlier reviews reported 20% lower dementia risk and up to 32% lower Alzheimer’s risk. Benefits appeared across lipophilic/hydrophilic statins and sexes, with some statins (e.g., rosuvastatin) showing stronger https://t.co/hwQAGbGvj4
Protective associations held in subgroups like people with type 2 diabetes or heart failure.thelancet.comThese are mostly observational, so they show association (not definitive causation) and could involve confounding factors like healthier lifestyles among statin users or statins' cardiovascular benefits indirectly supporting brain health.
Randomized controlled trials (RCTs): These provide stronger causal evidence and generally show no adverse effect on cognition or dementia risk. RCTs often find neutral effects on cognitive scores, with no increase in dementia incidence. Some limitations include shorter follow-up or populations not fully representative of typical statin https://t.co/f1TTvKxIPm
High cholesterol itself as a risk factor: Untreated high cholesterol (especially midlife) is linked to higher later-life dementia risk via vascular damage. Statins help manage this, supporting potential brain https://t.co/5fGsBBXC0i.ukReports of Memory IssuesSome people report short-term memory loss, confusion, or "brain fog" after starting statins. The FDA added a label warning in 2012 based on post-marketing reports. These effects are usually mild, reversible upon stopping the drug, and not linked to permanent dementia like Alzheimer’s.wellmedhealthcare.comLarge studies have not confirmed a consistent causal link for these symptoms, and they may relate to other factors. One analysis noted higher reporting right after starting any cholesterol drug, but this doesn't translate to long-term https://t.co/DOerAtLB2U.harvard.eduRare subgroup findings (e.g., lipophilic statins in people with existing mild cognitive impairment) have suggested possible risks in specific cases, but these are not generalizable and contradicted by broader evidence.uspharmacist.comBottom LineThe preponderance of evidence indicates statins do not cause dementia and may offer modest protection through cholesterol-lowering, anti-inflammatory, and vascular benefits. Cardiovascular benefits (reducing heart attack/stroke risk) strongly outweigh any rare, reversible cognitive concerns for most people who need https://t.co/XbWTaNyIzN
