Detailed Answer:
Hello.
I am Dr Mittal.
I have read your message.
I think I can help you.
Tonact TG 10 has Atorvastatin 10 MG+Fenofibrate 160 MG.
Tonact TG 20 has Atorvastatin 20 MG+Fenofibrate 160 MG.
In view of the details above, I would agree with the endocrinologist.
Tonact TG 20 will be better.
Please do note that I remain unaware of the sugar reports.
But considering the triglyceride levels too, I would suggest Tonact TG 20.
Best of luck, Dr Mittal
