Difference between Blood lipids and Megestrol acetate

Blood lipids vs. Megestrol acetate

Blood lipids (or blood fats) are lipids in the blood, either free or bound to other molecules. Megestrol acetate (MGA), sold under the brand name Megace among others, is a progestin medication which is used mainly as an appetite stimulant to treat wasting syndromes such as cachexia.
