Reuters | Latest Financial News / Full News Coverage: "NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - New research suggests that all patients who undergo angioplasty should receive cholesterol-lowering 'statin' drugs, such as Zocor and Lipitor.

The findings, which appear in the medical journal Heart, indicate that such therapy is equally beneficial for patients with stable angina or unstable angina. Both types of angina involve chest pain caused by a temporary drop in blood flow to the heart, but the symptoms are more predictable with the former."
