Abstract

Objective:To study the therapeutic effects of Atorvastatin on hyperlipemia of the young patients by comparing their blood lipid levels before and after taking the medication. Methods:36 young patients ranged from 18 to 39 years old with hyperlipemia were given Atorvastatin with a dose of 10mg qd which lasted 8 weeks.Results:The levels of TC,LDLC and TG significantly decreased,while the HDL-C level had no obvious change.There were 1 case of temporary epigastric discomfort and 2 cases of slight AST increase.Conclusion:Atorvastatin can significantly and securely reduce the blood lipid level in young patients with hyperlipemia.
