does cholesterol lowering medication clear cholesterol deposits already there in the arteries?

Answer 1

Logically I would have to assume it does. Otherwise how would you measure the medications effectiveness. If your base line number is say 220 and on your next visit the test shows your count at 200 and at the third visit the test should your cholesterol down to 190 it would indicate a reduction in initial plaque deposits. Otherwise you would never get a number lower than the one from the initial test that had the doctor prescribe the medication.

That's how y doctor described it to me anyway.

Answer 2

I don't have a natural remedy per se, however I recently got an oddly similar shock with my Blood Pressure & Cholesterol Readings. At 29 y.o 5'11 and only 75kg I was shocked. The Dr. suggested I try quitting smoking (for blood pressure) and try to relax, which i've done. For the Cholesterol he told me i simply need to eat more 'whole foods', Nuts, Seeds, Legumes.. High fibre foods. He also advised me to eat Avocado at breakfast, as it has only Mono-unsaturated fats, which are known to actively reduce cholesterol. He also told me to up my exercise regime which i have, It is good to see you have done the same. At the end of the day you may need to take medication short term to help allieviate any major threats, just to be safe. I didn't do that myself, as I was not advised to. Just make sure you follow you instincts and keep getting checked up, and listen to your doctor, life is important. If you feel like you are getting better and your index reduces, then keep at it. Otherwise Meds it is... But Stay Healthy!! ~Jack

Answer 5

Unfortunately, no. Statins have been shown to slow the growth of plaque, not reduce existing deposits. They also help to stabilize the existing plaques.
