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've noticed that sometimes my heartbeat suddenly speeds up while I'm sleeping, but it goes back to normal after a few minutes. Should I be concerned about this?

This sudden increase in heart rate during sleep could be due to a condition called paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT). To help manage this, you can take a beta-blocker medication such as Metoprolol. The usual dosage for Metoprolol in this case is 25-100mg per day, as prescribed by a doctor. It helps to regulate the heart rate and prevent episodes of rapid heartbeat. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and management.
