How It Works Fenofibrate belongs to a class of medications known as fibrates. Fenofibrate helps to reduce the levels of cholesterol and triclygerides in the blood. Fenofibrate when combined with a diet low in cholesterol and saturated fat will help reduce elevated levels of: low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), total cholesterol (Total-C), Triglycerides, and apolipoprotein (Apo B). Fenofibrate also increases high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C - "good cholesterol"), in adults with primary hyperlipidemia or mixed dyslipidemia. It is also indicated in the treatment of patients with hypertriglyceridemia. Dosage Tablets (145 mg, 160 mg, 200 mg) The usual dosage of fenofibrate is one 145 mg tablet once per day administered as an oral dose.
