Abstract
Introduction: Diabetics have an increased cardiovascular risk. This risk gets exaggerated by lipid abnormalities additionally. Diabetics have an increased propensity to develop dyslipidemia. Diabetic dyslipidemia is a cluster of lipoprotein abnormalities characterized by increased triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein levels, decreased high-density lipoprotein levels.
Materials and methods: From the pilot study, a potent dose of saroglitazar and gemfibrozil was selected for this study. In this study, the experimental rats were divided into five groups of six animals in each group.
Results: Combination therapy shows a decrease in lipid profile, atherogenic index, histopathological studies of different organs, and insulin levels compared to individual drugs and shows better therapeutic efficacy.
Conclusion: Hence, the combination of saroglitazar and gemfibrozil has shown a good safety profile and may represent a novel therapeutic agent that will fulfill the unmet needs in T2DM and diabetic dyslipidemia.
