  • Title: The evaluation of lipoprotein changes during gemfibrozil treatment.
    Author: Janus ED, Costa D, Ononogbu IC, Lewis B.
    Journal: Proc R Soc Med; 1976; 69 Suppl 2(Suppl 2):76-7. PubMed ID: 1019156.
    Abstract:
    During treatment with gemfibrozil, 1200 mg daily, total serum triglyceride levels were reduced in 7 of the 11 patients, owing chiefly to a fall in VLDL triglyceride levels. Total serum cholesterol responded variably, falling in a majority of patients with hypercholesterolaemia. High density lipoprotein cholesterol rose during treatment in patients who had either hypertriglyceridaemia or hypercholesterolaemia.
