Lipids

I am a 71 year old man. My total Cholesterol is l50, my LDL is also low at 70. My good cholestrol (HDL) is low at only 26. I have high Trig. at 245.

Is there any drug that will raise the HDL and lower the Trig. without making my total go to low?

I heard that Zocor or Lopid might do it.

Does anyone have a simular situation?

Thank you for your question. AIDS Vancouver Island is unable to offer medical advice. I would suggest that you contact your physician for information regarding cholesterol medication.

Best wishes in finding the health solution best for you.
