Risk profile: Depends on what factors are contributing to coronary disease in your specific case. Typical medications could include aspirin, statins (for cholesterol), betablocker, etc. Your doctor may also recommend a procedure to open severe blockage in your coronary artery if you need it.

81 mg chewable aspir: In, a statin like Crestor or generic Lipitor (atorvastatin) to get your nonhdl cholesterol to 90 (nonhdl chol = subtract the good HDL from total = all of the bad, not just ldl). Maybe others.
