Welcome

The ASCVD Risk Reduction Initiative is developing and evaluating innovative ways to help patients improve their heart health. The Initiative is focused on patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) or at high risk of ASCVD.

The flagship effort of the Initiative is Heart Pal. Heart Pal is a new program under development by the Initiative to help patients lower their blood pressure and cholesterol from the convenience of home. With Heart Pal, patients can take easy steps to reduce the risk of heart disease, heart attack, and stroke.

If you are enrolled in Heart Pal, please use this website to learn more about the Initiative and cholesterol-lowering medication.
