Which of the following does not increase LDL only?

  1. Fibrates

  2. Fish oils

  3. Atypical antipsychotics

  4. SGLT2is

The correct answer is: Atypical antipsychotics

Atypical antipsychotics are medications used to treat mental/psychiatric disorders. While they can increase cholesterol levels, they do not specifically increase LDL levels. The other options, including fibrates, fish oils, and SGLT2is, have been shown to increase LDL levels in some individuals.
