Lipitor Test

Lipitor Lipitor’s hypothesis is that if someone takes their pills then your total cholesterol will be decreased 29%-45% and the bad cholesterol 39%-60%. Lipitor’s claim is that this pill lowers the cholesterol of both young and old people.

The Subjects To do this test there will be 100 subjects. Of the 100, 50 of them will be old and the other 50 will be young. 25 young and old people will get the Lipitor and the rest of them will get the placebo.

Time Frame and Control The subjects will be observed for about 6 weeks. During these 6 weeks the subjects will have to keep a record of everything they eat. The subjects will not be able to high cholesterol foods.

The Results At the end of the 6 weeks all cholesterol levels will be taken. If the cholesterol levels lowered then the pills work.
