Tricor (Fenofibrate)

General information

Tricor is used to treat high cholesterol and high triglyceride levels. It belongs to a group of drugs known as fibrates. It works by increasing the natural substance (enzyme) that breaks down fats in the blood. Lowering 'bad' cholesterol and triglycerides and raising 'good' cholesterol decreases the risk of heart disease and helps prevent strokes and heart attacks. Lowering triglycerides in people with very high triglyceride blood levels may also decrease the risk of pancreas disease (pancreatitis).

Directions

Take Tricor exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Take this medication by mouth, usually once daily. Take each dose with a full glass of water. It may be taken with or without food. If you also take certain other drugs to lower your cholesterol, take Tricor at least 1 hour before or at least 4-6 hours after taking these medications. It is important to continue taking this medication even if you feel well.
