Who we help

We can help if you want to understand your cholesterol levels or if you need treatment.

Even if you don't have high cholesterol, you can use GoMDUSA to order labs to measure how your cholesterol levels change over time. Our medical team can help interpret your results.

We can also help if you need treatment. If you've had lab work through GoMDUSA then we can write three-month prescriptions for statins on an ongoing basis. If you've never had blood work through GoMDUSA then a single one-month refill of your existing statin is the most we can prescribe until you're able to go to the lab.

Available statin medications

We offer the following statin medications to help manage your cholesterol levels.

Generic statin Branded statin Dosages
PravastatinPravachol10–40mg
SimvastatinZocor10–40mg
AtorvastatinLipitor10–80mg
RosuvastatinCrestor10–40mg

Who we can't help

Anyone can use GoMDUSA to get tested for high cholesterol, but we can't prescribe treatment if the following apply.

Under 18
75 or older
Kidney disease
Liver problems
Allergy to statins
Want a different type of cholesterol treatment other than statins
Pregnant or trying to get pregnant

To receive a statin prescription you need to know your blood pressure. Many pharmacies offer free blood pressure checks — find a Higi or Pursuant Health machine near you.

Treatment and risks

Understand the treatment we recommend and the potential risks involved.

Managing your overall health

Managing cholesterol with statins is one part of heart and overall wellness. GoMDUSA provides one piece of the care you need — complement our service with in-person care when appropriate.

If you use GoMDUSA for high cholesterol, we provide guidance on other aspects of your health to manage.

We only prescribe statins

We prescribe statins when safe and appropriate per national guidelines. We do not currently prescribe other cholesterol-lowering drug classes — see a clinician in person for those options.

Risks of taking statins

Statins are generally safe but can cause rare serious side effects including muscle pain and weakness, severe allergic reaction, kidney failure, disability, and death. Risks increase with other prescription medicines — tell us all medicines you take.

Before taking any prescribed medicine, read your treatment plan and package insert for full side effects and warnings.
