Does my mother really need drugs for high cholesterol?

My mother's doctor has been trying to get my mom on medication for her cholesterol for years. I am perplexed, because her numbers are as follows:

 

Total Chol. 267

LDL 133

HDL 104

Triglycerides 151

 

With a ratio of 2.6, aren't those numbers actually good?
