Update.

When I added the ezetimibe last spring my apob dropped from 140 mg/dL to 65 mg/dL while taking 10mg of atorvastatin.

Last summer I switched from the atorvastatin to 1mg of pitavastatin. I did my bloodwork a few days ago and my apoB was 63 mg/dL.

So it seems that most of the apoB effect was the ezetimide. I was told that my insurance company would not approve the exetimide unless I was already on a statin.
