Product Overview

LIPICARD (Fenofibrate) 200mg capsules are a medication used to treat high levels of triglycerides and cholesterol in the blood. It belongs to the class of drugs known as fibrates. Fenofibrate helps to lower triglyceride and cholesterol levels, which can reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases, such as heart attack and stroke.

  • -Hypertriglyceridemia
  • -Hypercholesterolemia
  • -Dyslipidemia

Side Effect

Common side effects of Fenofibrate 200mg capsules may include stomach upset, headache, and back pain. In rare cases, Fenofibrate may cause liver problems or muscle-related side effects.

How to use

Swallow the Fenofibrate capsule whole with a full glass of water. Do not crush, chew, or break the capsule, as this may alter its effectiveness. Take Fenofibrate regularly at the same time each day to maintain consistent levels of the medication in your body.

How It works

Fenofibrate works by activating the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR-alpha) in the liver and other tissues. This activation leads to an increase in the breakdown of triglycerides and reduces the production of VLDL cholesterol. As a result, triglyceride levels decrease, and the levels of HDL cholesterol (the "good" cholesterol) increase.

What if you forget to take?

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it's close to the time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and resume your regular dosing schedule. Do not double the dose to catch up.
