Respected ma'm
1. Assessment for medicinal intervention fro high cholesterol depends upon your complete lipid profile and your co-morbidities. They have not been provided.
2. Lipid lowering drugs at times can cause muscular problems.
3. Weight loss is also expected from some of these drugs. However I need more details to discuss further.
Feel free to discuss further.
Sincerely
