Summary

This Open-label, randomized clinical trial evaluates the comparative efficacy and safety of dual versus triple lipid-lowering therapy using rosuvastatin, ezetimibe, and bempedoic acid in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and elevated LDL cholesterol. The study aims to determine whether adding bempedoic acid to standard dual therapy provides superior lipid control without compromising safety. The 126 participants, aged 35 - 60 years will be randomly assigned to one of three treatment groups for 12 weeks, and their lipid profiles, glycemic control, and adverse effects will be monitored.The total duration of study will be 6 months, with a 3 months individual treatment period.
