Description

Fenofibrate Generic Micro 200 mg

Chemical Name: Fenofibrate (fen-o-FI-brate)
Fenofibrate micro (generic) is NOT equivalent to Tricor.

Fenofibrate medication helps to decrease the levels of cholesterol and triglycerides by increasing the number of enzymes in your blood. These enzymes break down the fats present in the blood. High levels of these fats increase the risk of pancreatitis and atherosclerosis, however, it does not reduce the risk of heart attack or stroke. This medication, when taken with a proper diet, lowers bad cholesterol like triglycerides and increases good cholesterol (HDL) in the blood. In addition to a low-fat diet, other lifestyle changes such as regular exercise and stopping smoking could make this drug more effective.
