Is not the treatment of a hypertriglyceride indication always a subset of treatment of any CVD indication?

The concept of dependent claims being included within the scope of an independent claim should be considered as analogous to the problem you pose.

A package insert could easily be worded in accordance with above idea in mind. If necessary or desired, even a label pasted on the drug container could be worded in that way.

For example, the vial labels for Losartan and Simvastatin dispensed by CVS have the common brand name Crestor and Zocor also printed on the respective appropriate label.

I am amazed that the subject/topic now being discussed in a hypothetical manner somehow emanated from the original post in the train that started the discussion.
