Should I take medicine for LDL of 167?

My LDL is 167, should I take medicine

1 Answer

Answered on 23rd May '24

An LDL level of 167 is quite high. LDL means bad cholesterol which can attach to your blood vessels. This might lead to heart problems in the future. It usually comes from eating badly or because of genetics. To reduce your LDL, you may require medicine together with a good diet and exercise. Visit a cardiologist for a treatment plan.
