Hello, Thnx to contact us. If I am your treating doctor I would like to advice you that you should start aerobic exercise. When you are on drug your cholesterol reduces but, when you stop treatment it will re elevate. You can continue with the garlic and exercise when doctor stop treatment. If you have anything else to ask please contact me. Thanx. Dr. Arun Tank
