Brief Summary: To assess the efficacy and safety of Nidadd extended-release niacin in patients with hyperlipidemia
Detailed Description: This is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled and multicenter study A total of at least 50 patients will be recruited to achieve 40 evaluable patients required to assess the safety and efficacy of escalating doses of extended-release Nidadd in hyperlipidemic patients

1 The trial begins with measurement of baseline lipid levels Fasting blood samples will be collected at screening and each treatment visit except visit 3 for lipid analysis and safety monitoring Chemistry laboratory tests and hematological testing are performed periodically Patients diet education will be given by dieticians or appropriately trained counselors at visit 1 and 2
2 Patients who are taking any lipid-modifying drugs will be required to go through a 4-week washout diet-controlled period prior to randomization visit 2
3 Treatment duration is 16 weeks in total Patients randomized to treatment with Nidadd will receive 500 mg for the first 8 weeks of the medication period For another 8 weeks the dose is then increased to 1000 mg and is maintained to the end of the study The patients in control group will take placebo in a same fashion as that of Nidadd group throughout entire 16 weeks
4 The primary measure of efficacy is the change from baseline in serum HDL-c level Secondary measures of efficacy are changes from baseline in serum total cholesterol LDL-c and triglycerides
5 Safety and tolerability will be evaluated from adverse events number of patients who prematurely discontinue the trial because of adverse events and laboratory measures
