Cholesterol Quiz
Which of the following components may be included as part of a cholesterol management plan?
Treating bad cholesterol is only part of the picture
You need to manage the 3 main parts of your cholesterol, not just your bad cholesterol. If your triglycerides, or fat in the blood, are high or your good cholesterol is low, ask your doctor about TRILIPIX.
TRILIPIX helps manage the 3 main parts of your cholesterol
When it comes to managing the 3 main parts of your cholesterol, TRILIPIX may be
just what you need.
- TRILIPIX is the first and only fibrate cholesterol medication that is FDA-approved
to be used with a statin cholesterol medication to help improve all three cholesterol
numbers (good cholesterol, bad cholesterol, and triglycerides).1
- TRILIPIX is used along with diet to lower triglycerides and raise HDL (good) cholesterol in people at high risk of heart disease who have abnormal cholesterol levels and are taking a statin medicine to manage LDL (bad) cholesterol.
- TRILIPIX has not been shown to prevent heart attacks or stroke more than a statin
alone.
Safety Considerations
TRILIPIX should not be taken by people with liver, gallbladder, or severe kidney disease, or by nursing mothers.
Blood tests are needed before and during treatment with TRILIPIX to check for liver problems.
Unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness may be a sign of a serious side effect.
The risk for these side effects may be higher when TRILIPIX is used with a statin.
Other serious side effects may include abdominal pain, nausea, or vomiting, which may be a sign of inflammation (swelling) of the gallbladder or pancreas.
