It's advised to take simvastatin as long as your cholestrol and LDL are high
but you can make it faster via doing regular excercise and lower fatty food
best regards

It is better to check your lipids level after one month of treatment, if there is response and your levels are below normal thus you can stop treatment and continue healthy foods eating with exercise

Avocados contain good source of heart-healthy monounsaturated fat wich help to raise levels of HDL (goodcholesterol) and lowering levels of LDL (bad cholesterol), so you can use it in place of another high-fat food or condiment.
