What is this medicine?

FINOBRATE 160 mg contains Fenofibrate, a lipid-modifying agent from the fibrate class. It is used to lower cholesterol and triglycerides (fatty acids) in the blood, particularly in people at risk of pancreatitis or cardiovascular disease due to high lipid levels. It helps to reduce “bad” cholesterol (LDL), lower triglycerides, and increase “good” cholesterol (HDL).
