What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

Percentage of Participants With Any Clinical and/or Laboratory Adverse Experiences While Taking VYTORIN® Within 14 Days After Treatment Discontinuation
Participants who recieved VYTORIN and experienced any adverse event related or unrelated to VYTORIN®, within 14 days after treatment.
Measured: Up to 14 days after the treatment discontinuation
Mean Percent Change From Baseline to Treatment in Lipid Parameters
The mean percent change from baseline to treatment in lipid parameters (total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, triglycerides[TG]) and overall efficacy was evaluated by the investigator to show if there was any(improved, unchanged, worsened) lipid parameters over a period of approximately 5 years.
Measured: Baseline and up to 5 years
