Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this AUS is to evaluate the extent to which participants can safely and effectively self-select, purchase, and use Crestor OTC 5 mg for a 6-month period according to the label.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a single-arm, interventional, phase III Self-Selection (SS) and Actual Use Study (AUS) using a technology assisted tool within a Web App. The open-label study will enroll approximately 1220 participants who qualify for treatment based on the data they enter into the Web App of which an estimated 1000 participants will ultimately proceed to the use phase.

Participants identified as normal literacy by Rapid Estimate of Adult Literacy in Medicine \[REALM\] testing at Virtual Visit 1 will not be excluded from entry into the treatment phase of the study.)
12. Inability to conduct interviews in a private location so that sensitive information about the participant or study would not be overheard by others not permitted to hear such information.
