Yes. That's what got it down to the 'safe' levels. And especially yes if you haven't modified/changed your diet from before you started the meds. Cholesterol level is largely a genetic thing; some people can eat whatever they want and never have a problem; others clog up at the drop of a hat. You're doing yourself a favor by using them. A stroke is not something that you want.

If you don't continue to take it your cholesterol will peak again. The only way to make sure that it stays normal in diet alone won't work is to take medications.

Yes, for you are controlling it, but not curing it

you need to ask your Dr, about that ,because the meds working, and if you go off it , it might go high again don't play with it let your Dr make that decision
