I can not pocket a statin and niaspan for my lofty cholestrol,is in that any other meds i could try?
i thought my doctor would at least try me on zetia but did not.there is bound to be other meds i could try.
There are many things one can help yourself to, most do have side effects, others are Zocor, lipitor, lipobay, plavix,
I was unable to take any of these and so , go natural, I take Fish oils with evening primrose grease.
All the good omegas like omega 3, 6 too, the good oils.
I own taken maxepa, etc, however after using double the dose of the fish oil with evening primrose and the omega 3 & 6, my cholesterol dropped signifincantly and of course no added fats or oil in foods.
It takes about 3 months continued use of the fish oils, but they do work, as long as you do not munch through the wrong fats.
Also be aware that chicken even with the skin off does have a great deal of fat, the fat is just under the skin, below the film.
I parboil for few mins before cooking in whatever passageway i wish to cook.

If you cannot tolerate Niaspan because it give you a hot flush feeling, you could try taking an adult aspirin(325mgs) one hour prior to taking Niaspan. The best time would be at bedtime. But if you are so allergic to statins and Niaspan you could go the natural route and transport fish oil. omega 3 oils are great for lowering bad cholesterol, but keep contained by mind you would have to take about 12 caps 3 times per light of day. You can also try this new medication call OMACOR, its basically fish oil, omega 3's within a 1gram caplet, then you
would take 3 caplets per day but they are expensive and some insurances do not cover this med cause you can simply whip over the counter fish oil. Good luck and I hope I was of help to you.
Your doctor should be able to prescribe something else. I do take them with no difficulties. Can you munch through oatmeal? It has helped lower my cholesterol. I had a very complex time getting my HDL up. It has hovered between 3.1 and 3.4 since my bypass surgery. I've been following an exercise regimen, and continue to watch my diet. Then, out of the blue, a blood check just last month showed it up to 4.1. I was amazed! I haven't done anything different! Maybe it's just a combination of diet, exercise, medication and time.
Why don't you try Lecithin Granules? You can get it in a health food store. It emulsifies fatty arteries and breaks it down into miniscule globules.
It is supposed to be within a person's healthy liver and bile. I brought my ex husbands cholesterol down from 280 to 130.
Yes! Zetia
It sounds similar to you need another doctor. Yes, there are other medications you could try, and you can supplemenet them with diet and exercise (which really do engineer a difference). The important thing to discover is whether or not you have genetic high cholesterol reading. If it isn't genetic, it can be pretty well controlled by diet and exercise. If it is, then you need medical help.
over the counter stuff like fish oil, apple cider vinegar (tastes really bad).
1000 mg of fish grease - enteric coated to help cut down on the fishy burps - taken 3 times a day - my doc stresses this constantly. i've also heard red rice yeast but don't know anymore about that. Remember to inventory fish oils and natural supplements on durgs taken, as they can cause problems with other things you may appropriate, or if you are having surgery. My surgeon told me to quit the fish oil a couple of weeks before surgery - it thins the blood as do many of he herb starting with g (his wordage) ginseng, gingko...
