    cholesterol meds while on cycle...is it safe?

    I Have recently been put on cholesterol meds to lower my LDL. Its a litttle high @ 170! I'm concerned about doing my next cycle while taking meds and little concerned about doing cycle when my LDL is that high! Does anyone have an expert opinion on this?

    Btw..I'm 39yrs old, 12% BF

    Just avoid using orals in that case, since they stress the liver as well.
    Also, I forget the exact reason, but I have it on good authority that statins won't work to improve cholesterol while on an oral that is raping your cholesterol (like Anavar ), so you'd just be hurting your liver for nothing.

    Really? That sucks! I'm on a statin! My next cycle included Dbols for my first four weeks! What about the meds that arent in the statin family? I'm going to look into other cholesterol lowering meds that aren't a statin if there is a difference so I can include orals! If not then ...my health comes first and I will only do cycle that are safe for me! thanks for the info Bonaparte!

    Anyone else have any input on this subject????

    Yeah man, if you naturally have poor cholesterol and need statins, orals are out of the question.

    look into nicotinic acid, it will do wonders instead of statins
