title: Separate and joint effects of marine oil and simvastatin in patients with combined hyperlipidemia.
abstract: Marine oil plus simvastatin is an effective therapy for improving serum triglycerides, non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol in patients with combined hyperlipidemia. Concurrent administration does not attenuate the individual effects of either marine oil or simvastatin on the serum lipid profile.
