With Zou Defu popular explanation is that this drug can reduce blood fat ingredients, avoid excessive heart inside the stent coated with grease,http://notreleben.com/spip.php?article5, causing blockage.

That day is Friday, Beijing Fu Wai Hospital doctors after seeing the situation , immediately wrote him a list Zhang said:. "Your situation is very dangerous,http://gamsa.net/guestbook/index.php?item/create_form/1, must be immediately hospitalized for surgery, otherwise life should not hold"
 
Three days later,  pushed the operating room, the doctor in his heart in support of the three aircraft. Subsequently, the doctor gave him two drugs,http://www.etour.co.jp, one of which is Lipitor tablets, told him to have to eat every day.
 
Came back from Beijing, the  with boxes of Lipitor tablets. After eaten, he rolled in the vicinity of several pharmacies and found that PKU treatment of cardiovascular disease medicine pharmacy relatively full, the price is very cheap, so he took this as a "sentinel pharmacy." "Lipitor tablets, some pharmacies sell 70 yuan, and some pharmacies sell 75 yuan, while the North pharmacies only sell 59 yuan."  he said that from September 2008, he began to draw on this Medicare card to buy medicine.
 
In Zou Defu the hands, retains seven pharmacies in North Medicare checkout single, the first one was in July 2009, most recently on February 3 this year.
