High Cholesterol, Familial Heterozygous
"This drug was like a miracle for me! I&#039;m 29 and have known about my FH since I was 18. I do not tolerate statins or Zetia very well and the only medicine I&#039;ve been able to take is 2 mg of Livalo. On the Livalo my total cholesterol was 262 and my LDL was 280. I&#039;m fairly active for my age and in pretty good shape (I could lose about 10-15 lbs). I ran my first full marathon last year. After taking Repatha along with the Livalo for 6 weeks, my total cholesterol is now 130 and my LDL is 69. I have had absolutely no side effects. I&#039;m still in shock and I feel like I&#039;m in a dream. I&#039;m so thankful this drug is available!!"
