Hope you are doing good. Well if you are going through Medical test required by the embassy or home office , you should stop it for awhile because if you studied the literature of pravaz one of its side effect is it give you Abnormal liver tests.
you can should continue it after for your high cholesterol level , during discontinuing the medicine , avoid junk food , do regular exercise and take care of your diet and health.
