"The best thing about participating in a clinical trial is learning more about a disease or illness. I believe that my participation in REPRIEVE has helped me to become more knowledgeable about HIV and heart disease prevention. I am hopeful that the results of REPRIEVE show that heart disease events can be prevented with the use of a statin medication."

“For me, REPRIEVE is important to monitor and control my cholesterol rates, and for the community living with HIV it is another form of care and prevention for good health.”
