ChoLESSterol™ is a patient information programme developed by Pfizer, the world’s largest pharmaceutical company, to educate people in the UK about cholesterol, and the associated health risks.
This website has been produced to provide further information about this important health issue for people who have already been diagnosed with high blood pressure. While many people would benefit from managing their cholesterol levels, this is especially important for people with high blood pressure as both cholesterol and blood pressure are important, independent risk factors for developing heart disease and stroke.
In the free ChoLESSterol™ booklet you will find further information about cholesterol and managing your cholesterol level.
Remember your doctor is the best person to talk to about your blood pressure , cholesterol level and how to minimise any associated health risks. Download your FREE ChoLESSterol™ booklet for further information.
It is also important that people with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), heart disease, and/or chronic kidney disease (CKD), and those who have suffered from a stroke, manage their cholesterol level.
