Capt more recent one about Lp ( a) and aspirin
https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/JAHA.123.033562

Yes I agree its not all about LDL ( which is why I still take Vascepa ) , however the current thinking appears to ( at least my Kaiser Cardiologists view ) is to drive LDL as low as possible for secondary prevention CAD ( below 55 mg/dl ) add Vascepa for further risk reduction and aspirin for those with still elevated Lp(a) .

Crestor ( statin ) is now a very small pill in the 20mg dose ( which is the max dose Kaiser now recommends ) and generic
Aspirin low dose is also a very small pill and generic
Vascepa is 2 large capsules twice a day with still a significant copay for many... which may explain its sluggish sales
