A
The first step in therapy to reduce the risk for coronary heart disease is therapeutic lifestyle change (TLC), including diet and physical activity. Cholesterol-lowering medications should be added to TLC if needed to achieve further reductions in LDL-C. Antithrombotic medications are not used routinely (they may sometimes be used to reduce risk of blood clots). Stress reduction can help decrease cardiac risk, but is not the first step.
