Abstract: Background: Published guidelines recommend high‐intensity statins following an ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). The authors examined the potential for disparate patterns of statin prescribing in a cluster randomized trial of transitional care following acute stroke or TIA. Methods: Medications taken before hospitalization and statins prescribed at discharge among stroke and TIA patients at 27 participating hospitals were examined. Any statin and intensive statin prescribed at discharge were compared by age (<65, 65–75, >75 years), racial category (White vs. Black), sex (male vs. female), and rurality (urban vs. non‐urban) using logistic mixed models. Results: Among 3211 patients (mean age 67 years; 47% female; 29% Black), 90% and 55%, respectively, were prescribed any statin or intensive statin therapy at discharge. White (vs. Black) patients (0.71, 0.51–0.98) less commonly received any statin prescription, while stroke (vs. TIA) patients (1.90, 1.38–2.62) and those residing in urban areas (1.66, 1.07–2.55) more commonly received any statin prescription. Among those prescribed a statin, only 42% of White and 51% of Black patients >75 years. were prescribed an intensive statin; the OR for intensive statin prescribing was 0.44 for patients >75 years and was similar in a subgroup not on a statin previously. Conclusion/Relevance: Following stroke or TIA, statin prescribing remains lower in White patients, in those with TIA, and in those in non‐urban areas. Intensive statin prescribing remains limited, particularly in patients >75 years. These data may inform efforts to improve guideline concordant prescribing for post‐stroke patients.
