Probucol is an anti-hyperlipidemic drug initially developed in the treatment of coronary artery disease. However clinical trials were stopped after it was found that it may lower HDL in patients with a previous history of heart disease. Probucol was initially developed in the 1970s by a chemical company to maximize airplane tire longevity.
