On Cholesterol Lowering Drugs, Taking Aspavor 20mg. Could Chloesterol Lowering Drugs Have Damaged My Liver?

I am 48. I have been on Chlesterol lowering drugs for +- 25 years ( currently Aspavor 20mg). Without medication my Cholesterol is 8.2 with medication 5.2. What worries me is that my Gamma GT ranges between 94-98. I stopped drinking 2 years ago ( never a heavy drinker). Could the ongoing use of Chloesterol lowering drugs have damaged my liver?

If you stop cholesterol lowering agent, then your liver will get fatty changes which is more dangerous.
