Abstract
It was felt that in Japan, the current guidelines are adequate; there seemed no merit in radically reducing LDL-C levels since in the Japanese population the risk is generally low. Japanese physicians tend to use small doses of statin and believe that these are effective in lowering cholesterol sufficiently with few side effects and encourage good compliance.
