Fenofibrate significantly reduces the concentration of TG and increases the level of HDL-C while at the same time showing a pleiotropic effect. In addition, it inhibits further development of atherosclerosis and reduces the risk of macrovascular and microvascular complications, which improves prognosis, especially in patients with increased cardiovascular risk. Due to its high safety profile, fenofibrate is the drug of choice when used in combination with a statin.
