Brief Summary
Although the combination of statin and fenofibrate is one of the options for patients with combined hyperlipidemia, non-lipid effects of it has not been completely understood yet. In this study we compared the effects of rosuvastatin 10 mg/fenofibrate 160 mg combination and rosuvastatin 10 mg monotherapy on muscle and liver enzyme, homocysteine levels, kidney, blood glucose control, and blood cell counts.
