Conditions: Depressive Episode, Dyslipidemia
Interventions: Escitalopram plus atorvastatin
Countries: China
This is a clinical observation study. We want to learn more about two common prescription medicines used together for adults. These medicines treat low mood and high blood fat. The two medicines are escitalopram for mood symptoms and atorvastatin for high blood fat. Both medicines are approved and routinely used in hospitals. This study answers two simple questions: * Does taking these two medicines together improve patients' mood? * Does this medicine combination improve blood fat levels and have safe results? Study participants are adult patients who have symptoms of depression and high blood fat. This study uses no experimental drugs or new medical devices. All treatment follows standard hospital care. During the study, participants take their regular medicines as prescribed by their doctors. The study team collects routine health information during normal clinic visits. We check mood scores and blood fat test results. We also record any mild side effects, such as dizziness or stomach upset. This study adds no extra tests, no extra procedures, and no extra costs for participants. Joining this study is voluntary. Participants may stop at any time. Stopping the study will not change their regular medical care. All personal health data stays private and protected.
