Description

Pablo José Astesana and co-authors study cholesterol drugs and bone density in a 2024 paper. Statins mainly lower cholesterol, but hints suggest they may also help bones. The study covered older women with high cholesterol in Córdoba, Argentina. Half had taken statins for at least six months, and half had not.

Bone density at the spine and hip ran higher in the statin group. The statin group was older and heavier on average, which the team noted. Longer use linked to better spine density up to a point. Which statin type a woman took showed no link to density.
