Hello All,

I am looking for a treatment for high Triglycerides( TG ) levels ,over 1000.for a 19 year old patient.
The physician has prescribed Finolip 145 X 2 per day.
But the TG level does not go below 600.
I have read thath Niacin lowers TG .
My pharmasist suggseted Nicovas 500 and Nialip 375.
I read ,Nialip has many side effects.
Please extend a help-share your views/experience.

TNJ, I got my blood report 2 days ago. I am on Nicovas 500 one per day.HDL which was 35 is now 40, LDL which was 73 is now at 63.The previous test was done in the month of june'11.
The above could be the result of Nicovas. I do not take any other supplement.
Any one know about Kefir ( water or milk)crystles & how to get them

I started taking Nicovas 500 mg when my HDL was at 18 mg/dL. Now it is 33 mg/dL. On seeing the result I have started taking Nicovas 1 gm twice daily. I will let you know the result in two weeks.

Ravi, As far i can gather from your write up, Nicovas is good for bringing down LDL but it may not take the HDL higher. For HDL there seems to be no prescribed medication.Using olive oil in the diet seems to be working for me. The HDL of mine is around 35.
I also have included swimming & playing Tennis in to my regime.
I have BP,no sugar, have a stent in the heart.
Take care

Dear Dr. I had PTCA in the month of Feb 2011.soon after this i was put on Nicovas 500, 0-1-0.
Last month the blood report indicates a lower LDL but the HDL has remained < 35.

I had a heart attack in March 2005 and a suspected heart attack in November 2009. My HDL cholesterol level was 18 mg/dL. My doctor has prescribed Nicovas 500 mg to raise my HDL level. I have just started taking it for the past one week. I intend to take it for long term. I will share my experience frequently.
