Fenofibrate is a lipid-lowering agent that belongs to the class of fibric acid derivatives. It is used primarily to reduce cholesterol and triglycerides (types of fat) in the blood. It is approved for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia and mixed dyslipidemia, often as an adjunct to diet. Fenofibrate is currently approved and widely used in clinical practice.

Pharmacokinetics
