Etofibrate is an ethylene glycol diester of clofibrate and nicotinic acid. The drug was used under the names Tricerol and Lipo-Merz, among the others, for the treatment of severe hypertriglyceridemia and mixed hyperlipidemia. The mechanism of etofibrate action implies activation of PPAR-alpha receptors.
