Lipicard 160 MG Description

Lipicard 160 tablet contains fenofibrate which lowers the fats in the body such as cholesterol and triglycerides. This medicine is used along with specific diet, exercise and lifestyle modifications for reducing the fat levels of the body. Side effects such as indigestion, vomiting or gas can be experienced while using this medicine.

Lipicard 160 tablets should be taken at the prescribed dose and period. You can take it with or without food at any time of day but try to take it at the same time every day. This medication is simply one component of a therapy plan that should also include a balanced diet, regular exercise, smoking cessation, alcohol moderation, and weight loss. You can eat normally while taking this medication but try to avoid high-fat foods.

Most people with high cholesterol do not have symptoms, but if you stop taking this medication, your condition may worsen.
