Method and composition for reducing serum lipid levels using p- chlorophenyl p-chlorophenoxyisobutyrate

摘要

A method for reducing serum lipid levels in humans and animals is provided which comprises administering a hypolipidemically effective amount of p-chlorophenyl 2-(p-chlorophenoxy)-2-methylpropionate. A hypolipidemic composition is provided which comprises p-chlorophenyl 2-(p- chlorophenoxy)-2-methylpropionate, as principal active ingredient, in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Total serum lipids and serum cholesterol levels are significantly reduced.
