[Bis-(hydroxy-2-ethylthyo)-1,10-decano in hyperlipaemic therapy (author's transl)].

The authors studied the effectiveness and biological tolerability of Tiadenol [Bis-(hydroxy-2-ethylthyo)-1,10-decano] against clofibrate, in a group of 38 hyperlipaemic (volunteers) subjects, with or without atherosclerotic disease. The results showed that the new hypolipidaemic drug has a great effect on cholesterolemia and trigliceridaemia, as does clofibrate. The statistic examination confirmed the results. This research didn't show any side-effects of the drug, which has a very good biological tolerability.
