Posted on Tue, 1 Apr 2014
Question: Hello, I noticed that my tryglicerides are increasing even if I am having a good diet. I am taking zoloft 100 mg, requip 4 mg and bystolic 5 mg every day. I suspect it is the zoloft. What do you think? Tryglicerides are 200 when XXXXXXX should be 150. Cholesterol ldl and hdl are good.
