Don't treat numbers: It's impossible for any physician to make a judgement about whether a person with these reassuring numbers should continue to take medication without the full history. Like most non-infectious diseases, cholesterol problems are managed but not cured by medication and other means. I'm glad your friend has you and that you care about their health. Good luck.

Ask her doctor: More information is needed to make an accurate and meaningful recommendation for your friend, thus her physician would be the best to answer this question. Her current level is excellent but we don't know her prior numbers before the med was started so we can't be sure if it's good now because of the med.
