description To determine the antihyperlipidemic effects of a-tocopherol in primary hyperlipidemia. Design: An analytical cohort study. Patients & Methods: This is study was conducted in the Department of Pharmacology and Therapeutics, Basic Medical Sciences Institute of Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Center, Karachi, from February to April 2001. Newly diagnosed and un-treated primary hyperlipidemic persons of either gender between th ages 17 to 70 years were initially enrolled in the study for a 12 week (90 days) trial with fortnightly follow up visits. The selected patients were divided into 2 groups. The first group (Group-I) was treated with diet restriction and exercise only. The second group (Group-II) was treated with diet restriction, exercise and a tocopherol. Results were compared using paired t-test.
