[|Human|] I am on pain management for severe back injuries and back surgeries from being a nurse. approx 8 months ago I had typical blood work done that included lipid panel and everything was with in norm limits. I just recently had blook draw again and trig. were 315!! I also had extemely elevated inflammatory such as sed rate etc. This in combination have caused me to have very high cardiac enzymes. I am taking neurontin, percocet, and zanaflex which is presribed by dr. Is is possible that any of these medications can cause such elevated lipids? I have not changed my diet and if anything I have actually been eating healthier.  I cant seem to lose any weight and have frequent swelling of my stomach. HELP!!!
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for asking. Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.1. Triglycerides of 315 is very high. The medications Neurontin, percent and Zanaflex can all affect liver. Particularly percent can damage liver in high doses. This could be one of the cause of high triglycerides.2. More common cause would be increased bad fat intake in diet. Medications alone cannot be the cause. You need to get into a low fat, low carboy Chat Doctor.  Include lots of fiber to reduce triglycerides levels. 3. Zanaflex can affect cardiac enzymes levels. Not to worry. Its only short term. Weight reduction is essential along with medications like vibrates to reduce triglycerides. Get on a diet along with moderate exercises to lose weight. Hope it helps. Any further queries, happy to help again.
