What is Fenomax 200mg Capsules?

Fenomax 200mg Capsules are prescription lipid-lowering capsules containing Fenofibrate. Fenofibrate is a PPAR-alpha agonist that helps the body break down and remove triglyceride-rich particles from the blood.

Fenomax 200mg Capsules are generally prescribed as an addition to an appropriate lipid-lowering diet when dietary changes and other non-medicine measures alone have not provided adequate control.

Treatment with Fenomax 200mg Capsules does not replace healthy eating, regular physical activity, weight management, diabetes control, or reduced alcohol intake. Conditions that may contribute to abnormal lipid levels, such as diabetes or hypothyroidism, should also be assessed and treated.

Uses & Benefits of Fenomax 200mg Capsules

Fenomax 200mg Capsules may be prescribed for:

• Management of high triglycerides or hypertriglyceridemia
• Treatment of primary hypercholesterolemia
• Treatment of mixed dyslipidemia
• Reduction of elevated LDL and total cholesterol
• Reduction of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins
• Support for increasing HDL cholesterol
• Management of diagnosed lipid abnormalities in selected adults with diabetes or metabolic risk factors

Clinical studies of 200mg Fenofibrate capsule therapy showed reductions in triglycerides, LDL cholesterol, and total cholesterol, with increases in HDL cholesterol among evaluated patients. Individual results may differ.

Important cardiovascular clarification

Fenomax 200mg Capsules may be used as part of an overall cardiovascular risk-management plan, but Fenofibrate has not been established as a medicine that directly prevents heart attacks, strokes, or cardiovascular death.

Very high triglyceride levels can increase the risk of pancreatitis. However, available prescribing information states that the effect of Fenofibrate treatment on reducing pancreatitis risk has not been adequately established.

How Do Fenomax 200mg Capsules Work?

Fenomax 200mg Capsules increase the breakdown and removal of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. This action may help:

• Lower triglycerides
• Reduce LDL cholesterol
• Reduce total cholesterol
• Reduce apolipoprotein B
• Increase HDL cholesterol

The response to Fenomax 200mg Capsules should be checked through repeat lipid-profile testing. Continued treatment depends on the patient’s response, tolerance, kidney function, and liver-test results.

How to Use / Dosage

Take Fenomax 200mg Capsules exactly as prescribed by your physician.

• The commonly referenced dosage for adults with primary hypercholesterolemia or mixed dyslipidemia is one 200mg capsule daily.
• Take the capsule with a meal to support absorption.
• Swallow the capsule whole with water.
• Take it at approximately the same time each day.
• Continue the lipid-lowering diet recommended by your physician.
• Do not take more than the prescribed dosage.
• Do not stop treatment without medical advice.

The dosage for high triglycerides should be selected according to the patient’s lipid results and response to treatment. Lipid testing may be repeated after approximately four to eight weeks.

Kidney function and older adults

The 200mg strength may not be suitable as an initial dosage for patients with kidney impairment or some older adults. A physician may select another strength after evaluating kidney function and lipid levels. Fenomax 200mg Capsules should never be started without medical assessment.

What should you do if a dose is missed?

Take the missed dose when remembered unless it is almost time for the next scheduled dose. Skip the missed capsule when the next dose is near.

Do not take two Fenomax 200mg Capsules together to replace a missed dose.
