Thank you. So there's one study that suggests: "Small changes in hematocrit and erythrocyte levels were observed during the study; these changes were to a similar degree as seen with hemoglobin, with a mean change from baseline at week 4 of –1.1% (bempedoic acid) vs 0.5% (placebo) in hematocrit levels and –1.8% (bempedoic acid) vs –0.01% (placebo) in erythrocytes".I'm actually angry at myself for spoon feeding you after your ridiculously dense comment, despite me sincerely trying to contribute to the discussion and pointing you towards an entire discussion on it. You're also a Google search away from the answer.
That said - Look at the data for yourself. Placebo -> +.5% hematocrit, treatment -> -1.1%, a 1.6% drop that was consistent across the entire population, and a 1.8% difference in red blood cells. Extrapolated from unhealthy older people (these groups) to folks on gear, that could be a larger 2-4% change.
Also, fuck you for that comment.
Is there any other data or is that the only study?
