Abstract in brief

  • Hypertriglyceridemia affects 15-20% of adults and is often found incidentally; it’s associated with conditions like overweight, metabolic syndrome, and diabetes.
  • Elevated triglyceride levels above 1000 mg/dL can cause acute pancreatitis, and treatment involves lifestyle changes such as alcohol cessation, reducing carbohydrate intake, weight loss, and controlling blood sugar, with drugs like fibrates or omega-3 fatty acids used if needed.
  • The need for medication depends on the patient’s overall cardiovascular risk, and while lifestyle modifications are key, only certain cases like genetic hypertriglyceridemia require specialized treatment in clinics.
