Changing in food habits, the type of oil you take for cooking will help reducing both. The best drug to increase HdL is exercise. The supplement you can take is omega 3 fatty acid 1-2 gm a day. If you are not on any drug till now wait, rpt after 3 months the lipid profile with life style change or else start rosuvastatin 10mg dose at night. Specifically for triglycerides fenofibrate may be added
