A benefit of statins given prestroke as well as after stroke onset was seen with a greater magnitude effect with poststroke statins. Their study also reconfirmed that higher doses of statins were associated with better outcomes (atorvastatin at 40 mg being better than 20 mg, which in turn was better than 10 mg).Interestingly enough, even 10 mg did show a benefit but not of the same magnitude as the higher doses.heir study also reconfirmed that higher doses of statins were associated with better outcomes (atorvastatin at 40 mg being better than 20 mg, which in turn was better than 10 mg).

In the study of maximum-dose LipitorÂ® for stroke, all of the 4,731 subjects had experienced a recent stroke. Of these, 2,365 people received maximum-dose LipitorÂ® and 2,366 received placebo. Of those receiving maximum-dose LipitorÂ®, 11.2% had another stroke. Of those receiving placebo, 13.1% had another stroke.n comparison, standard-dose LipitorÂ® reduced LDL to an average level of 101 mg/dL, which was also a good result. 1. Over the five years of the study, 434 people (8.7%) in the 80-mg group experienced another cardiovascular incident (such as a heart attack or stroke) versus 548 people (10.9%) in the 10-mg group.
