Lowering ApoB and cholesterol: which therapies cut heart risk
Heart disease from narrowing arteries usually builds up gradually over decades, as cholesterol-carrying particles lodge in the artery wall and form fatty plaques. A blood marker called ApoB counts these particles directly, and it can flag risk a standard cholesterol test misses. Several proven medicines lower these particles in different ways. This discussion covers how they work, how well they prevent heart attacks and strokes, and why starting earlier may matter.
