Patients with mildly elevated cholesterol can stop taking medication to bring it down, but lifestyle modifications should be strengthened and cholesterol levels should be monitored regularly. For patients with mildly elevated cholesterol, oral lipid-lowering drugs can reduce cholesterol levels to normal and can be temporarily discontinued. For patients with mildly elevated cholesterol, it is important to strengthen lifestyle control after stopping the medication by eating more vegetables, less high cholesterol food, and appropriate physical exercise. Patients with elevated cholesterol should pay attention to strengthening cholesterol monitoring after stopping the drug to understand the level of cholesterol after stopping the drug, if it remains stable, it can continue to be controlled by lifestyle control; if the level of blood lipids is elevated, it is considered that the effect of lipid-lowering is relatively poor, and it is still necessary to take oral medication, and it is even possible to take oral medication for a long period of time. Patients with hyperlipidemia should adopt reasonable lifestyle intervention or medication regimen under the guidance of their doctors to control their blood lipids up to the standard.
