    Abstract:
    30 patients with primary hyperlipoproteinemia (type II and IV according to Fredrickson) were treated with Gemfibrosil (Gevinon--film tablets of 450 mg of "Parke-Davis Company") for a period of 45 days with a daily dose of two tablets taken with the evening meal. The results of the treatment were a decrease of the total cholesterol (with 16.34%), of triglycerides (with 34.50%), of low density lipoproteins (with 10.76%) and of very low density lipoproteins (with 49.21%) and an increase of the high density lipoproteins (with 2.34%). Gevilon was well tolerated. No side effects requiring discontinuing of the treatment were registered.
