Repatha along with pravastatin 10 mg and ezetimibe

Update on my Repatha journey.
I completed 4th injection on 7.13.2025
Will get blood tested in August 2025 and hopefully the cholesterol is low enough I can stop the Pravastatin and Ezetimibe.
Have not had pain other than heartburn however that is related to my GERD.

Thanks all!

Hi..im going on my second month of Repatha...also taking lisiniprol 5 mg and Prevastatin 10 mg for high cholesterol and high blood pressure just checked my BP was 96 over 64 my lower always has been high between 87 and 97 which is not good so was wondering if anyone has been on all three of theses meds

I'm on 80 mg of atorvastatin, plus 10 mg ezetimibe, plus Repatha. Just passed the 2 year mark on Repatha and not changing anything since the combo is working super well for me. Not to act as a shill for them, but Cost Plus Drugs is amazingly inexpensive for the statin and ezetimibe and less costly then using insurance (about $23 for both drugs for 90 days), so it's not a cost issue to maintain all if it's working.

@agb
What is your total cholesterol and LDL if you don’t mind me asking?

@agb
I added ezetimibe my total Cholesterol dropped dramatically and LDL.

@manofheart before adding Repatha, my total cholesterol was 187 and LDL was 109; now the number are 87 and 17

@agb

Mine are 120 cholesterol
LDL 37 or so

@agb I have read that levels as below 50 you may see plaque regression

@manofheart that's my hope: regression. Prior to any of the meds, my cholesterol was 423 and LDL of 250, so I'm thrilled this is working for me.

@manofheart
I think you are correct about regression at those numbers. Even Drs. Esselstyn and Ornish saw regression in their patients on a 100% plant based extreme low fat diet. I tried the Esselstyn diet, very strict, for 5 months and was able to get my total cholesterol down from 226 to 168, and LDL down from 149 to 107. Unfortunately, with two stents in my LAD, another on a right branch, and another on a left branch, my cardiologist wanted my numbers lower. So, I went on Repatha in August and my blood test from a week ago was total cholesterol 108, LDL 40, and HDL up from 35 to 50 for the first time in my adult life. I have not had any side effects other than some muscle cramps in my legs when I do my 2,000 yard swim three times a week. I simple upped my potassium intake and that went away.
