FAQs from Dubai Creek Harbour patients
What is a healthy cholesterol level?
+
For most adults, target LDL is under 3.0 mmol/L; under 1.8 if you already have cardiovascular disease or diabetes. We personalise targets based on your overall risk.
Do I really need a statin?

Not always. If your 10-year cardiovascular risk is below 10% we usually try lifestyle first. Above that, the evidence for statins is excellent and we explain the trade-offs honestly.
