    Abstract:
    The effects of an associated treatment with Ciprofibrate and Simvastatin upon plasma lipid parameters, liver Mixed Function Oxidases enzymes and peroxisomal markers have been studied in male Wistar rats. The association was efficient upon triglycerides, but not upon cholesterol. The inducive and proliferative effects commonly exerted by Ciprofibrate (5 mg/kg/day) were not significantly modified by the simultaneous treatment with Simvastatin (10 mg/kg/day). The increase of the seric alanine amino transferase activity was however much more pronounced after the associated treatment than after single administration of Ciprofibrate or Simvastatin.
