The article published on March 27 states in the case presentation and the discussion that the patient developed the cough while taking atorvastatin and it resolved when the drug was discontinued. The conclusion states that the symptom resolved when he was switched TO atorvastatin. Should the conclusion not state that the symptom resolved when he was switched to rosuvastatin?
