I've just got my test results and it says my triglycerides are at 186 mgdL. I'm a bit worried about whether this is within the normal range or not. Also, the report shows my LDL is 99.80. Could you help me understand what these numbers mean for my health?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
based on your triglyceride level of 186 mgdl, it is considered borderline high. The normal range for triglycerides is typically less than 150 mgdl. As for your LDL level of 99.80, it is within the optimal range. To help lower your triglyceride levels, you can consider taking Atorvastatin 10mg once daily. It is important to also follow a healthy diet and lifestyle to manage your lipid levels effectively.

I'm wondering if it's safe to use a generic substitute that has the same active ingredients for Rozavel 20 mg, Praxa 75, and Volgimac GM2 tablets after having a stent placed. Is there anything specific I should be cautious about with these generics in my situation?
Yes, it is generally safe to use generic substitutes with the same API as long as they are prescribed by your healthcare provider.
