In the fields of lowering blood lipids and preventing cardiovascular diseases, taking statin is indispensable. It is the first choice for the control of cardiovascular disease risk, the control of hyperlipidemia, and the basic drugs. The wider the application of the drug, the greater the chance of wrong medication.
use of drugs for random use
Some people have only undergone physical examinations with triglyceride , while low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, etc. are within the normal range. They feel that they have high blood lipids, so they buy medicines and take them by themselves, but the result is not reduced. This is also the behavior of not receiving the due treatment and using drugs for random use.
statins are used to compete to inhibit the activity of cholesterol synthetase in the liver, inhibiting the synthesis of cholesterol cholesterol in the liver, and lowering blood lipids, so the regulation effect of triglycerides is generally poor.
In fact, sometimes this little indicator, as mentioned above, only triglycerides are slightly increased, and it does not necessarily require taking medication. In minor cases, you can also reduce the situation through dietary regulation, active exercise, weight control, etc., and check the situation regularly. Do not use medication without authorization.
can insist on taking the medicine, but the blood lipids
Some people have diagnosed related diseases, and the doctor also requires taking statins, and they can continue to take it, but the lipids are not checked.
If you do not check the blood lipids, how do you know what the blood lipids will be after taking the medicine? Is it controlled and stabilized, or has dropped to a very low level? Only when you check the blood lipids, can you adjust the medication plan in time, and can you control the blood lipids to reach the standard level more strictly, and can greatly reduce the risk of cardiovascular events.
Choose high-dose to take it, and take liver damage
Some people take small doses of drugs, but think that high doses will be more effective, so they increase the dose and then cause drug-induced liver damage .
statins themselves have a certain chance of leading to the risk of increased aminotransferase. For example, 40mg of atfastatin is also the largest dose allowed in China, and the risk of increased aminotransferase will also increase.
Once the blood lipids meet the standard, stop the medicine
Some people take medicine and see that their blood lipids meet the standard, they don’t care about it and stop the medicine. This behavior is not advisable.
Hyperlipids problem is actually like chronic metabolic diseases such as hypertension , diabetes , etc., these diseases cannot be "cured". First, they need self-discipline in life, and second, they cannot effectively control blood lipids in life, so they need to insist on taking drugs, and they also need to check the blood lipids regularly and follow the doctor's advice.
In fact, in reality, many people take statins like this. I also hope that everyone can know that these behaviors may affect their health. Only by using drugs reasonably and taking drugs safely can they better protect their bodies.
