Respected Ma'm
Thanks for your query.
I really did not get the salt in this tablet LINVOLIN. If you are sure you spelled it correctly?
Anyway, It is not something well known in literature, that a cholesterol lowering drug causes abnormally prolonged bleeding during menses. In all probability it is something else. Either the drug or the underlying pathology. I would request you to see your doctor on priority' may be your gynaecologist directly.
Hope it helps.
Sincerely
