I've been experiencing some strong side effects like muscle pain, dizziness, and shaky hands and legs from taking Rozavel and Pivasta. Are there any realistic alternatives or supplements in the Indian market that could lower my LDL by around 15-20% without serious side effects? I've heard about things like Coeveleselam, but I'd love to know more.

I'm a 30-year-old male and I've got an LDL cholesterol level of 140mgdl. Recently, I felt some pain in my left arm and now I'm taking rosuvastatin and torigesic for that. I'm wondering if sticking to a good diet and regular exercise will help get everything back to normal, or should I be thinking about getting some more tests done, like maybe an ECG? My blood pressure is sort of normal, so I'm a bit confused about what to do next.
