All medicines have side effects. Statins can damage the liver and cause diabetes, and some other side effects. Atorlip is required for patients of blockages, as in such patients benefits exceed side effects. If you are taking it due to cholesterol blood reports or any other reason, risk of side effects is more than chance of benefits.
Benefit chances are about 1% per year, serious side effects same 2% per year. Plus minor side effects about 10 % per year.

EZ is a medicine with very little positive health benefits, probably should never be taken. And tonact is for blockage patients, very rarely beneficial for any other case. Rethink why you are taking medicines for long periods without proof of benefits. For more information please discuss on phone
Atorlip ez and tonact 3rd are interchangeable.

1. What are the long term side effects of Statins. I read on multiple sites like Pubmed Citations, WebMD, Drugs.com and other journals that it can cause Muscle Pain (which I am going through now - left shoulder and arm). 2. Does it causes Hair Loss. I am losing hair and at pretty high speed. I am feeling burning scalp and hair loss both. I consulted dermatologists as well as hair specialists but nobody could resolve the issue (or find the cause). 3. I am taking atorlip f (10 mg atorvastatin+160 fenofibrate). It helped reduce my triglycerides to 89 from 399 within a month and total cholesterol from 210 to 164 within one month. My HDL is good and LDL is within range. 4. After the report I moved to 5 Mg atorlip (statin) it again brought back triglycerides to 299 and total cholesterol to 207. HDL fine, LDL high. One more thing I noticed is (Vitamin B12 very low, vitamin D very low, prediabetes - No family history). 5. I am not back on Statin 10 MG Fenofibrate 160 mg (Atorlip F). My Question is - Can I just take Fenofibrate only to reduce triglycerides and will it help me reduce my triglycerides level? Will that cause any issue? - Can I take Niacin (nicotinic acid) only with combination to Multivitamin - Daily Cardio exercise (6 Km cycling 3 KM walk). And Strict diet. My Background: Very sedentary, with pedometer I take 500-600 steps a day in total. Couch potato, 5.7 feet, 58 KG (THIN) - lost 6 KG through swimming only. No history of Familial Hypertriglyceridemia. What would you recommend as alternative treatment for me, based on the observation above.

Hello, As atorvastatin is helping you to reduce the TG but it has a withdrawal process. But that also do not make so much difference. But with the withdrawal process of atrovastatin you should go through proper Characterized Homeopathic case recording for your individualized treatment else your problem will persist.
Homeo treatment will help you to reduce the intake of Tonact which has chemical effect on health. TG is directly effects on health. If think fit you may contact though Lybrate fo...more

Yes you can combine, but COQ is not a medically proven chemical. Try not to be on long term medicines for preventive health, it is quite a fashion but probably dangerous.
