I've been told my HSCRP level is 10, which I know is pretty high. I'm wondering, does taking Novastat 20 help bring that level down? I'd really appreciate some guidance on this.

Accepted Answer

Novastat 20 contains Atorvastatin, which is commonly used to lower cholesterol levels. While it may have some anti-inflammatory effects, it is not specifically indicated for reducing high HS-CRP levels. To specifically target high HS-CRP levels, medications like Aspirin or certain anti-inflammatory drugs may be more appropriate. It is important to consult with your healthcare provider for the best treatment plan.
