What is Gemfibrozil?
Active Ingredients: Gemfibrozil
Gemfibrozil Tablets are used to lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood. When combined with dietary changes, it helps raise HDL and lower LDL and lipids. Gemfibrozil is typically prescribed for patients who are unable to take statins and for those who have been unresponsive to other treatments.
Gemfibrozil is a lipid-regulating drug, which is also known as a fibrate. It works by affecting the liver's production of triglycerides.
