Background: Hypercholesterolemia patients are at high risk of coronary heart disease. National cholesterol education programme (NCEP) Adult Treatment Panel III guidelines provide the option of aggressively lowering Low-density cholesterol in them. Presently the standard therapy of hypercholesterolemia is by HMG co-A reductase inhibitors. Present study shows that Rosuvastatin is better than Atorvastatin, Atorvastatin and Fibrate is better than Atorvastatin monotherapy in management of hypercholesterolemia. Methods: The present research was an observational study conducted at Government general hospital, Nizamabad. A total of 150 patients on treatment for hypercholesterolemia for more than one year were enrolled in our study. They were divided into three groups. Group I: Atorvastatin (20 mg) (n=96; 64%); Group II: Rosuvastatin 10 mg (n= 41; 27.33%); Group III: Atorvastatin (20 mg) + Fibrate (145 mg) (n=13; 8.66%). Results: Rosuvastatin is better than Atorvastatin and Atorvastatin with fibrates reduces LDL, TG more than Atorvastatin alone. Conclusions: Rosuvastatin is better than Atorvastatin and Combination of atorvastatin with fibrates reduces LDL-Cholesterol and triglycerides more than atorvastatin alone.
