Evaluation of Combination Cholesterol Treatments in Patients With High Cholesterol.

Evaluation of Combination Cholesterol Treatments in Patients With High Cholesterol.: "The purpose of this study is to see if combination therapy with a 'statin' medication and two additional agents that work differently than 'statin' medications can further lower the so-called 'bad cholesterol.' One therapy is a prescription drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat high cholesterol (Welchol). The other therapy is Minute Maid Heart Wise orange juice. This study juice is available in supermarkets and contains plant sterols that have been shown to lower cholesterol. "
