Hyperglycerolemia by a mutation or deletion of an individual's genetic code. In adults, fibrates and statins have been prescribed to treat hyperglycerolemia by lowering blood glycerol levels. Fibrates are a class of drugs that are known as amphipathic carboxylic acids that are often used in combination with Statins. Fibrates work by lowering blood triglyceride concentrations. When combined with statins, the combination will lower LDL cholesterol, lower blood triglycerides and increase HDL cholesterol levels. If hyperglycerolemia is found in a young child without any family history of this condition, then it may be difficult to know whether the young child has the
Biodiversity and drugs example, caffeine, methyl salicylate and quinine. Streptomycin, neomycin, and erythromycin are derived from tropical soil fungi. A lot of plant species are used in today's studies and have been exhaustively studied for their potential value as source of drugs. It is possible that some plant species may be a source of drugs against high blood pressure, AIDS or heart troubles. In China, Japan, India and Germany, there is a great deal of interest in and support for the search for new drugs from higher plants. Each species carries unique genetic material in its DNA and in its chemical factory responding
