Abstract

Hypercholesterolemia is a high level of cholesterol in the blood. Patients must take anti-cholesterol drugs for
a long time, so they are at risk of experiencing side effects from the drug. Apo-B and total cholesterol
are indicators of cholesterol levels in the blood. Wet cupping therapy is a method of excreting metabolic
waste in the blood through the surface of the skin. The study aims to prove the potential of wet cupping
therapy as a complementary therapy to reduce Apo-B and total cholesterol. Method: This research is Quasy
experimental research using humans as research subjects. The dependent variable is Apo-B, and total
cholesterol gave wet cupping treatment. Cupping is done twice, 7 points, using a G21 needle. A large sample
of 32 people with hypercholesterolemia divided into treatment groups and control groups. Apo-B
measurement using ELISA sandwich method, Elabscience® reagent, in units of ng/ml. Total cholesterol uses
the enzymatic colorimetry method, Diasys® reagent, in mg/dl units. Data analysis was carried out with the
Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test with a significance level of 5% (α = 0.05), the pre-data compared with the post
data. Results: A significant reduction in Apo-B measurements with p-value 0.000 (α <0.05), SD 42. A
significant reduction also occurred in the total cholesterol group. Obtained p-value 0.005 (α <0.05) SD 0.23.
Conclusion: Intervention of wet cupping therapy can reduce Apo-B levels and total cholesterol in the blood.
Further research needs to be done to measure the potential for prevention of atherosclerosis.
Keywords: wet cupping, Apo-B, total cholesterol, blood
