What follows are the general terms for the use for the Talking Statins web site...
It can be very difficult to offer advice from a web-site that only seeks to deliver accurate information. The site owner has gathered the information together from many sources and published it here to try and demystify the medical jargon and the statin-related issues, for non-medical people who have been taking statin medication.
To avoid disappointment, confusion and misunderstandings, for all visitors to this web-site, it is necessary to spell out in detail what this web-site cannot (and must not) do because of the current legal restrictions. Accounts of various clinical studies, and their implications, for people who are currently taking statin medication, plus any other evidential material that can be found on this web-site, are only being used to alert people to other possibilities.
It is not the intention of this site to prevent, or dissuade people, from consulting with their usual medical practitioner. Neither does the site exist to encourage people to treat themselves for whatever medical conditions have prompted their visit to this site. Talking Statins offers all of the information on this site in good faith.
Medical information is a constantly changing area and it is always being updated. The site owner will keep the information as up-to-date as the circumstances allow. The site owner is not responsible for how this information may be used by visitors nor can the site be held responsible for the accuracy of the information supplied, where it may have been changed in some obscure way that takes years to filter into the public domain.
If visitors to the site have chosen to act on the information that is published here, without consulting a medical practitioner about their decision to act, then the consequences of a visitor's actions will remain the responsibility of the visitor. Talking Statins is not responsible for any personal decisions taken by site visitors in any event.
