Another study found that statin users were less likely to die from prostate cancer.
A study from Jefferson University examined a group of 12,700 patients at high risk of prostate cancer.
Those taking statins seemed to have better outcomes.
This study looked at another drug, metformin, which is used to treat diabetes and has also seen success in treated prostate cancer.
Senior author Grace Lu-Yao said: “Both metformin and statins have been associated with longer life in prostate cancer patients, yet because they are commonly prescribed together, no study we know of has looked at these two medications separately.”
