Even before cholesterol lowering medicines, you must take care of your diet and increase your exercise, because you need to convert your LDL in to HDL which is possible without medicines and doing regular exercises. If even after dietary restrictions of animal fats and exercises, the cholesterol levels remain high then anti lipid medication can be considered.
