The Lipid Formula (slang for Friedewald Formula) (Heritage Labs Technical Bulletin)

This Question of the Month came from a client visit where the lipid profile was discussed. The comment expressed was that sometimes all 4 components of the profile are not given, most often the LDL which is sometimes not provided in an APS. When a suggestion was made to use the “lipid formula,” the inquiring underwriter had no knowledge of the formula or how to use it.
