Brief Summary

Dyslipidemia is an important risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Maintaining normal levels of lipid indicators can significantly reduce the risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and mortality. Empirical evidence suggests that adherence to Pueraria lobata and Pueraria thomsonii is useful for improving dyslipidemia, but evidence from randomized controlled trials is lacking. This randomized, double-blind controlled trial is therefore designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Pueraria lobata and Pueraria thomsonii for dyslipidemia.

Study Arms (3)

Pueraria lobata group

EXPERIMENTAL

Pueraria lobata will be made into granules.

Drug: Pueraria lobata

Pueraria thomsoni group

EXPERIMENTAL

Pueraria thomsoni will be made into granules.

Drug: Pueraria thomsoni

Placebo group

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

The dosage form, specifications and packaging of the placebo will be no different from those of Pueraria lobata and Pueraria thomsoni Granules, and the smell and taste will be basically the same.

Other: Placebo

Interventions

The dose of Pueraria lobata granules is one sachet per day, 1.5g per sachet, which equivalent to 15g of the original drug.

Pueraria lobata group

The dose of Pueraria thomsoni granules is one sachet per day, 1.5g per sachet, which equivalent to 15g of the original drug.

Pueraria thomsoni group
PlaceboOTHER

The placebo group will take the same dose as the other two groups.
