Calculation Formula

LDL (bad) cholesterol is calculated using the Friedewald formula.


  • LDL (bad) cholesterol = Total cholesterol − HDL (good) cholesterol − Triglycerides / 5

  • Non-HDL cholesterol = Total cholesterol − HDL (good) cholesterol

  • L/H Ratio = LDL (bad) cholesterol / HDL (good) cholesterol



This calculation cannot be performed if the triglyceride level is 400 mg/dL or higher.
