Cholesterol lowering with atorvastatine for the prevention of gallstones following bariatric surgery (CHOLSTONE): an investigator- blinded randomised controlled trial

This study looks at whether a common cholesterol-lowering medicine called atorvastatin can help prevent gallstones in people who have had weight-loss surgery. Researchers will check for gallstones using ultrasound six months after surgery to see if the medicine makes a difference.
