A patient with high total cholesterol and LDL
Today a lady patient came to my chamber. She came to check her lipid profile. On enquiry, she mentioned that she had a previous history of dyslipidemia and at a certain stage she took lipid-lowering drugs for a few months; later stopped. Today she wanted to check the current lipid status in her blood.
I ordered the lipid profile. When the report came, it was shown that her total cholesterol and LDL  were quite high; 8.4 mmol/L and 5.7 mmol/l respectively.

I advised her to start lipid-lowering drugs again along with dietary control and daily physical exercise. I gave her atorvastatin 10 mg daily once, at night time. I told her to for follow up in 2-3 months.

In relation with this post, we should keep some adverse effects of statin group drugs in our mind which is the main lipid-lowering drugs in the market.  Myopathy is the main side effect of stains occurring in up to 5% of the patients treated with these drugs. Muscle pain (myalgia) is a prominent symptom.  A deranged liver function is also seen following startling of statins.

Statins type of lipid-lowering drugs should be taken at night, preferably as the last thing because this is the time when the majority of cholesterol synthesis takes place.

Hyperlipidemia is very common here in the United States also. I'm glad you suggest diet and exercise to your patients. They may not need the statins if they truly followed your advice on these things

Yes. If they do that then don't need to take statins, may be. Few months before she took statins , then stopped and now cholesterol and LDL are high again. Means , after stopping the statins, they didn't continue non-drug treatment (diet, exercise). So, I didn't have confident that she would do the diet and exercise.  So I added the statin.

I read Actifit posts. People talk about different things in their Actifit post and add pictures. But I have never read something like that in an Actifit post. Keep up the good work!
