How to normalize my high triglycerides?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I suggest you take tablet Atorva (Atorvastatin) 20 mg once daily at night time before sleep for two months. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and with their consent take the medicine. Some patients do complain of myalgia after using this dose. If you find any kind of body pains after starting this, you need to take 10 mg tablet once daily. Diet management and regular physical exercise should be continued along with medication.

As per guidelines stated, people who are at risk of hypertension, diabetes, or any familial hypercholesterolemia or any other factors like smoking alcohol etc. can definitely start using the medication along with regular physical exercise. You need at least one hour of brisk walking or exercise to help to reduce the cholesterol levels. Triglycerides are a basic form of cholesterol which synthesizes bad LDL (low-density lipoprotein) and VLDL (very-low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol. If you do not have any risk factors and if do not have a sedentary lifestyle then you can concentrate on diet management and physical exercise.

There are no noticeable side effects registered except myalgias. You can use for two months and repeat fasting lipid profile. Based on that, you can decide whether to continue or need to stop the medication. It is not necessary to continue for life long without any risk factors.
