The study participants in the control group will receive the study drug daily for 12weeks. The primary endpoint is the percent change in TGL and non-HDL levels from baseline to 12weeks of therapy. The secondary endpoints are Percent change in Total Cholesterol, HDL, VLDL, LDL Cholesterol, TC/HDL ratio and TGL/HDL ratio from baseline to 12weeks of therapy, Pharmacoeconomic evaluation in both groups. The safety endpoints are Incidence of Adverse events in both groups and Percent change in SGOT, SGPT from baseline to 12weeks of therapy.
