Patient's question:
Medical history of 5 years, mainly dizziness. Have been reviewed at the local hospital. Test results showed mainly high triglycerides and low high-density lipoprotein, with the rest being normal.Treatment history and effectiveness: Have been taking the Western medicine Gemfibrozil. It was effective in the past, but recently in the past one or two years, it has rebounded.
What kind of help is needed: Hello, do Chinese medicine have good drugs for lowering triglycerides?
Doctor's answer:
Here's the English translation of the provided text, with line breaks preserved as instructed:To see how high the triglyceride level is, if it's slightly higher than the normal value, taking propolis is sufficient. If it's too high, it's best to take niacin-based medication, but pay close attention to dietary adjustments—eat more coarse grains and vegetables, and avoid red peanuts. Take a small amount of aspirin regularly to prevent the recurrence of cardiovascular diseases. Rest well, and have a recheck after a period of time. Don’t have psychological stress. While undergoing treatment, pay attention to maintaining sleep—adequate sleep will help you recover quickly from illness.
