If you have increased cholesterol, you can consider taking oral statins. Commonly used statins include simvastatin, atorvastatin, resevastatin, pravastatin, lovastatin, fluvastatin, etc. Different drugs have different cholesterol-lowering values, and statins need to be taken orally once a day at bedtime for long-term application to effectively lower cholesterol values. Muscle pain, elevated transaminases, transverse muscle syndrome, and acute renal failure can occur. During the application of statins, regular liver function tests are required. If there is a significant increase in transaminases, it is necessary to change the type of statin, reduce the dosage of statins, and consider other cholesterol-lowering drugs such as probucol and ezetimibe.
