Brief summary

To compare and evaluate the effects of LDL-C and Triglyceride (TG) control on the first dose Ezetimibe/Statin (Rosuvastatin 5 mg/Ezetimibe 10 mg) combination therapy compared to the average dose Statin (Rosuvastatin 10 mg) monotherapy in patients with Type 2 diabetes with hypertriglyceridemia (TG \> 200 mg/dL).

Detailed description

The purpose of this study is to compare and evaluate the effects of LDL-C and Triglyceride (TG) control on the first dose Ezetimibe/Statin (Rosuvastatin 5 mg/Ezetimibe 10 mg) combination therapy compared to the average dose Statin (Rosuvastatin 10 mg) monotherapy in patients with Type 2 diabetes with hypertriglyceridemia (TG \> 200 mg/dL).
