Conditions treated by fenofibrate
Fenofibrate is primarily used for the treatment of high cholesterol (hypercholesterolemia) and high triglyceride levels (hypertriglyceridemia) and mixed dyslipidemia in the blood. It is often prescribed in combination with lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise.
How does fenofibrate work?
Fenofibrate, an approved medication for treating high cholesterol levels, works in the body by affecting lipid metabolism and interacting with liver enzymes. It exerts its mechanism of action through the following:
- Fenofibrate targets blood lipid levels by reducing triglycerides and increasing HDL cholesterol (high-density lipoprotein cholesterol)
- It enhances lipolysis, resulting in decreased VLDL (very low-density lipoprotein)
- Fenofibrate promotes bile acid synthesis and clearance from the liver
- It upregulates ApoA-I gene expression to improve HDL function
- It also helps lower levels of low-density lipoprotein LDL (low-density lipoprotein cholesterol) and total cholesterol
These actions collectively help to regulate lipid metabolism and maintain a healthy balance of cholesterol in the body.
Forms of fenofibrate available
Fenofibrate is available in various forms, including oral tablets and capsules.
Dosage of fenofibrate
The dosage of fenofibrate may vary depending on the specific condition being treated, lipid levels, and individual patient factors. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage instructions and drug information provided by the healthcare provider.
If you accidentally miss a dose of fenofibrate, take it as soon as you remember unless it is close to the time for your next scheduled dose. In that case, skip the missed dose and resume your regular dosing schedule. Avoid taking double doses to make up for a missed one as this could increase the risk of side effects without providing additional benefit.
Directions for fenofibrate use
Fenofibrate should be taken exactly as directed by the healthcare provider. It is usually taken once or twice daily, with or without food. The medication is often prescribed as part of a comprehensive treatment plan that includes dietary modifications and exercise.
Store the medicine in a closed container at room temperature, away from heat, moisture, and direct light.
