Lupin Pharmaceuticals announced the launch of Fenofibrate Tablets, the generic version of Abbott‘s Tricor.
Fenofibrate is a fibrate indicated as adjunct to diet in hypertriglyceridemia (Types IV and V), and to reduce elevated total-C, LDL-C, apo B, and TG, and to increase HDL-C, in primary hypercholesterolemia and mixed dyslipidemia (Types IIa and IIb). By activating the PPARα receptor, fenofibrate increases lipolysis and elimination of triglyceride-rich particles from plasma by activating lipoprotein lipase and reducing production of apoprotein C-III.
Fenofibrate Tablets will be available in 48mg and 145mg dosage strengths.
