This study is to evaluate the controlling effect of atrovastatin on plasma lipid to achieve the category-specific targeted lipid levels.
To confirm the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)-lowering effect of 24 weeks of treatment with Lipitor®(Generic Name : atorvastatin calcium) Tablets and determine the rate of achievement of the category-specific target LDL-C level in patients with hypercholesterolemia; and to confirm the usefulness (efficacy and safety) of atorvastatin in patients who have not responded sufficiently to other statin therapies
