  • Common use

    Tricor contains active substance fenofibrate. In the tissues it turns into the active metabolite: fenofibric acid. In combination with a diet it is used to treat people with very high levels of triglycerides in the blood or lipid disorders. The drug increases activity of lipoprotein lipase, catabolism of triglycerides in the very low density lipoproteins (VLDL), accelerates transfer of cholesterol from atherogenic the very low density lipoproteins (VLDL) to the antiatherogenic high-density lipoproteins (HDL), decreases synthesis of VLDL.

    Dosage and direction

    Take orally 160 mg of Tricor three times a day as initial dose to treat high cholesterol levels or a combination of high cholesterol and high triglycerides. For treatment of high triglyceride levels
    the starting dose of Tricor is 54-160 mg a day. It may be gradually increased every 4-8 weeks up to maximal dose of Tricor 160 mg a day if triglycerides do not improve.

    Precautions

    Activity of transaminases should be monitored on a regular basis in the patients taking Tricor. If blood tests for ALT increase 2 and more times and accompaigned by myalgia and muscle weakness, treatment with Tricor should be discontinued.
