Brief Answer:
Medications along with lifestyle modifications.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.
After reading your post, I would suggest that you should first go for lifestyle modifications like :-
1. Regular aerobic exercises.
2. Avoid oil rich foods.
3. Avoid excess sweets.
In addition you can start Atorvastatin 10 mg at night for correction of your deranged lipid profile. According to me start with 10 mg of Atorvastatin and repeat Lipid profile after 3 months to see the results and further planning.
I hope this is helpful to you.
If you have any further query, I will be happy to help.
Regards. Thanks.
