Cholesterol

Cholesterol, a soft waxy substance, is produced by the liver and is presented in every cell of the body. It is carried in the blood by molecules called lipoproteins including LDL (low-density lipoprotein), HDL (High-density lipoprotein) and Triglycerides. It is also essential for the production of hormones released by the adrenal glands. It shields nerve fibers as well as helps in the production of bile. In order to keep the cholesterol level balanced, patients are advised to use the following medications as per your doctor’s recommendation.
