Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a fixed-dose combination of atorvastatin (10 mg) and ezetimibe (10 mg) compared to atorvastatin (20 mg) monotherapy in the Bangladeshi population.

Participants will: * Take a fixed-dose combination of atorvastatin (10 mg) and ezetimibe (10 mg) compared to atorvastatin (20 mg) monotherapy for 3 months * Follow-up visits at 6 weeks and 12 weeks for checkups and tests
