First prime


As I mention in my response email PRIME the primary outcomes per clinnicaltrials.gov were depression remission at 24 weeks, which was not statically significant. And then a use of fewer medications that have a potential gene-drug interaction which from what I can find was a ‘theoretical’ interaction not an actual increase in adverse events.

The current VA/DoD guidelines clearly state, “For patients who cannot tolerate a statin, we suggest a washout period followed by a rechallenge with the same or a different statin or lower dose, and if that fails, a trial of intermittent (nondaily) dosing”.

N-of-1 Trial of a Statin, Placebo, or No Treatment to Assess Side Effects | NEJM was published in the NEJM and then a few weeks later Statin treatment and muscle symptoms: series of randomised, placebo controlled n-of-1 trials (bmj.com) was published in the BMJ.

Around that same time a publication in JAMA https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle/2773490 showed that using pharmacogenetic testing resulted in no worse LDL levels (soft endpoint) at one year but also no better
