[QUOTE="TheBigNewt, post: 1633744, member: 380756"] But a.fib is not coronary disease. Separate cardiac issues. I don't think statins benefit people who have a.fib, but it definitely benefits people with coronary disease. Reduces risk of more coronary events (heart attacks, revascularization procedures like stents and bypasses), death from heart disease, even strokes (which are not coronary related). People who also have peripheral vascular disease (legs, feet) benefit even more. [/QUOTE]
