High triglycerides increase your risk for heart disease. Lifestyle changes like avoiding fried food, sugary items, and alcohol, along with regular exercise, are important. If levels remain high, medicines like statins or fenofibrate may be prescribed.

On 25 October, some of my blood report values were high. I want to do blood tests for cholesterol, HDL, LDL, triglycerides, and homocysteine.

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Hi, I recently did a regular health check up, and my LDL cholesterol is high. I have attached the report for reference. Could you please advise whether I should consult a doctor for further evaluation, or can I try lifestyle modifications for some time before seeking medical advice?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have been prescribed Lipitor 20 mg once daily at bedtime since January 2016. Is it safe for me to stop this medication and try natural or home remedies to reduce my cholesterol instead? My blood sugar is under control. Please advise.
