I've been noticing that my blood pressure readings are often between 12895 to 13095, and my diastolic rarely goes below 95. Should I be concerned about this? If it is a problem, what steps can I take to lower my diastolic pressure?

I've been dealing with high cholesterol and triglyceride levels for about three years now, and I've been keeping track of them regularly. I'm really concerned and would like some advice on medications that might help manage these levels. What would you suggest?

Hi, for high cholesterol and triglyceride levels, you can consider taking Atorvastatin (brand name Lipitor) at a starting dose of 10-20 mg once daily. Additionally, Fenofibrate (brand name Tricor) can be added at a dose of 145 mg once daily to help lower triglyceride levels. It is important to follow up with your healthcare provider regularly to monitor your levels and adjust the dosage if needed.
