Drug ClassStatin (HMG‑CoA reductase inhibitor) + Fibrate (PPAR‑alpha agonist)
ScheduleH
PrescriptionRequired (Rx)
Overview
Drug | Tablet
Uses & Benefits
Treatment of mixed dyslipidemia (high LDL cholesterol and high triglycerides), hypertriglyceridemia, and to reduce cardiovascular risk when lipid levels remain uncontrolled with diet/exercise alone.
How It Works
Rosuvastatin is a statin that inhibits HMG‑CoA reductase, reducing cholesterol synthesis and increasing LDL clearance from blood. Fenofibrate activates PPAR‑alpha, increasing breakdown and clearance of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins and improving HDL levels.
Directions for Use
Take orally as prescribed, usually once daily at the same time each day. Can be taken with or without food (follow doctor advice); swallow whole with water. Continue diet, exercise and lifestyle measures; do not stop without medical advice.
Risk of muscle injury (myopathy/rhabdomyolysis) increases with statin+fibrate—seek urgent care for unexplained muscle pain/weakness, fever or dark urine. Use with caution/avoid in active liver disease, severe kidney impairment, and gallbladder disease; periodic liver function tests and lipid monitoring may be needed. Fenofibrate can increase risk of gallstones and can affect kidney function; dose adjustment/monitoring may be required in elderly or renal impairment. Stop and consult doctor if jaundice, severe abdominal pain, pancreatitis symptoms, or allergic reaction occurs.
