text: Among ten trials that distinguished hemorrhagic from ischemic stroke, treatment with lipid-lowering therapy in general increased the risk of hemorrhagic stroke by 21 percent, whereas statins themselves increased this risk by only 3 percent; neither effect was large enough to be distinguished from the effect of chance.26 Statins are apparently more successful than older cholesterol-lowering drugs because they more effectively reduce the risk of ischemic stroke and less severely aggravate the risk of hemorrhagic stroke.
