Dear Mrs,
You should have appropriate diet, avoid animal fat, don't eat fruits and sweets after 5 pm. You should lose weight if you are overweight. Regular exercise also reduces cholesterol.
If there is no effect on lifestyle changes, you can try other statins with caution such as simvastatin or rosuvastatin.
Hope this helps
Wishing you good health
