Yeah I see what your saying.

It will be prescribed by the masses. I think what cards is saying (and obviously he can respond himself) is the benefits were much more profound in secondary prevention. So physicians are going to prescribe well outside the inclusion criteria for reduce it there. For primary prevention, data is there but less dramatic. Some will stay in inclusion criteria TG> 135 but over time IMO we will be expanding outside of that range as well particularly when DTC advertising happends and they come in asking for it. For physicians to prescribe for primary prevention outside inclusion criteria takes time, conferences, talking to colleagues, talking with experts in the field, more data out of reduce it, etc. This happends with every area of medicine. An article comes out. There’s early adopters. Then as the data gets peeled apart and critiqued and presented at national conferences etc people feel more comfortable about it and prescribing habits increase.
