Background/aims Nephrotic dyslipidemia is a risk factor for the development of systemic atherosclerosis; it may also aggravate glomerulosclerosis and enhance the progression of glomerular disease. We aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of Monascus purpureus Went rice versus fluvastatin therapy in the management of nephrotic dyslipidemia.
