Tricor (fenofibrate) is used to treat a variety of high cholesterol or high triglyceride conditions. It is also sometimes used to reduce risk of limb amputation, diabetic retinopathy, and cardiovascular disease in diabetic patients. In other words, Tricor is used to treat:

• Primary hypercholesterolemia
• Mixed dyslipidemia
• Hypertriglyceridemia
• Otherwise lower LDL levels
• Raise HDL levels
• Reduce risk of some diabetic complications

Though less common than the above, some patients buy Tricor for off-label applications, such as to help reduce high levels of uric acid. For off-label uses, patients are advised to find a doctor or organization familiar with using Tricor for a given condition.

Patients of all ages use Tricor, though effects on those under age 18 have not been studied and use in this population is rare. Do not buy Tricor for patients under age 18 without explicit doctor approval.

Breastfeeding mothers should not take Tricor. Effects on unborn babies are unclear.

Taking Tricor

Tricor comes in tablets, which should be swallowed whole and not be split, chewed, or otherwise damaged. Each dose should be taken with a meal and a beverage. For the majority of patients, one dose is taken per day.

Dosage is ideally individualized, and can vary according to what's being treated and patient response. Daily dosage typically ranges from 54 mg to 160 mg. It is not unusual for dosage to be modified in the first few weeks at the start of treatment according to individual response.

Patients planning to buy Tricor should be aware that the active ingredient in this medication, fenofibrate, is available under a number of brand names. These different brands are not necessarily interchangeable; bioavailability can vary and may significantly impact dosage. To be on the safe side, buy the brand the doctor recommended or double-check with the doctor regarding dosage if, for whatever reason, switching brands is desired.

Lifestyle changes are also recommended to the vast majority of patients; in many cases changes must be made to some extent before a prescription to buy Tricor is issued. Changes often include:

• Reducing cholesterol intake
• Reducing sodium intake
• Starting a regular exercise regimen
• Reaching and maintaining a healthy weight

Again, recommended lifestyle changes should be individualized according to a given patient's needs. A doctor is best situated to make recommendations and monitor results.

Tricor will provide some benefit if lifestyle advice is ignored, but it won't be terribly significant. Lifestyle changes are often the only way to reduce and eliminate dependency on medication, and they will help Tricor work well in the meantime.

Though rare, some patients develop these conditions based more on genetics than lifestyle choices. These patients will most likely benefit to some extent in making a few lifestyle changes, but it may not be enough to eliminate dependency on medication. These patients will likely need to buy Tricor or similar treatments for the remainder of life.

Before Buying Tricor

There are some other medical conditions which may call for modified dosing of Tricor, or render it unsuitable for use at all. Of greatest concern are:

• Kidney disease
• Liver disease
• Gallbladder disease
• Diabetes
• Hypothyroidism

Patients with the above---or any mjaor medical condition---should be sure to discuss potential risks with a doctor before taking Tricor. The medication can produce severe side effects, and the above increase the risk of experiencing them.

Tricor can interact with a variety of other medications, including over-the-counter varieties and recreational drugs, including alcohol. Double-check with a doctor or pharmacist before taking any other medications during treatment, and avoid excess use of recreational drugs.
