FIBRICOR

Approved Use

FIBRICOR is a peroxisome proliferator receptor alpha (PPARα) activator indicated as an adjunct to diet: to reduce triglyceride (TG) levels in adult patients with severe hypertriglyceridemia (> 500 mg/dL); to reduce elevated total cholesterol (TC), low-density-lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), TG and apolipoprotein (Apo) B and to increase high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in adult patients with primary hypercholesterolemia or mixed dyslipidemia.
