Abstract

In a single-handed General practice in a high risk area of South Yorkshire, I introduced aggressive measures from 1980 onwards to control the lipid profile in all patients who exceeded the currently advised target levels. This was done by life style measurers and progressively more potent lipid lowering drugs with increasingly stringent target levels.
