Lipanthyl 145Mg 20 Tab

Lipanthyl 145Mg 20 Tab

Description:

Lipanthyl 145 mg is a prescription lipid-lowering medicine containing fenofibrate in nanocrystal technology, formulated as film-coated tablets. It is used as an antilipemic agent to help reduce high triglycerides and cholesterol levels in adults at risk of cardiovascular disease. Fenofibrate acts as a fibric acid derivative and PPARα agonist, improving the balance of blood lipids by lowering triglycerides and LDL cholesterol while increasing HDL (good) cholesterol. Lipanthyl 145 mg is typically used alongside a low-fat, low-cholesterol diet and lifestyle modifications to support heart and vascular health.

Indications:

• Treatment of hypertriglyceridemia (elevated blood triglycerides), with or without low HDL cholesterol.
• Mixed dyslipidemia (combined elevation of triglycerides and LDL cholesterol with low HDL cholesterol), particularly in patients who are intolerant to statins or require additional triglyceride lowering.
• Adjunct to diet and lifestyle changes (weight reduction, increased physical activity, smoking cessation) in adults with lipid disorders.
• Reduction of cardiovascular risk in selected patients with dyslipidemia and other risk factors, as assessed by a physician.
• May be used in certain patients with hyperuricemia associated with gout, as fenofibrate has antigout and uric acid–lowering properties (only under medical supervision).

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Fenofibrate (nanocrystal technology) – 145 mg per film-coated tablet.
• Other excipients: The full list of inactive ingredients (excipients, coating agents, stabilizers) is not available in the provided information. Please refer to the official package leaflet for complete excipient details.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Usual adult dose: 1 tablet of Lipanthyl 145 mg once daily, or as directed by your physician.
• Administration: Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew.
• With or without food: Lipanthyl 145 mg (nanocrystal formulation) can generally be taken with or without food; follow your doctor’s or package instructions.
• Duration of use: Long-term treatment is often required to maintain lipid control. Do not stop treatment without consulting your doctor, even if you feel well.
• Diet and lifestyle: Must be used as an adjunct to a cholesterol-lowering diet, regular exercise, weight control, and avoidance of excessive alcohol.
• Missed dose: If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for your next dose. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed tablet.
• Special populations: Dose adjustment or avoidance may be required in patients with kidney or liver impairment, elderly patients, or those taking other lipid-lowering medicines. Use only under medical supervision.

Clinical Benefits:

• Helps significantly reduce elevated triglyceride levels, supporting healthier blood lipid profiles.
• Lowers LDL (bad) cholesterol and VLDL while increasing HDL (good) cholesterol, contributing to improved cardiovascular health.
• Enhances lipoprotein lipase activity and fatty acid oxidation via PPARα activation, promoting more efficient breakdown of triglyceride-rich particles.
• Supports reduction of cardiovascular risk when combined with appropriate diet, exercise, and other risk-factor management.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Contraindicated in patients with severe liver disease (including biliary cirrhosis and persistent unexplained liver function abnormalities), severe kidney impairment, or pre-existing gallbladder disease.
• Do not use if you have known hypersensitivity or allergy to fenofibrate or any component of the formulation.
• Use with caution in patients with a history of muscle disorders, especially when used with other lipid-lowering drugs (e.g., statins), as risk of myopathy or rhabdomyolysis may increase.
• Regular monitoring of liver function tests, kidney function, and lipid levels is recommended during treatment.
• May increase risk of gallstones; inform your doctor if you experience abdominal pain, nausea, or jaundice.
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding; fenofibrate is generally not recommended during pregnancy and lactation unless clearly needed.
• Inform your healthcare provider about all medicines you are taking, especially anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin), other lipid-lowering agents, immunosuppressants, or diabetes medications, as dose adjustments or monitoring may be required.
• Not intended for use in children unless specifically prescribed by a specialist.
• Consult your doctor before use if you have liver disease, kidney disease, gallbladder problems, thyroid disorders, diabetes, or a history of muscle problems.
• Keep out of reach of children.

Side Effects:

• Common side effects may include digestive disturbances (abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea), headache, or mild elevation of liver enzymes.
• Less common side effects can include muscle pain, muscle weakness, cramps, or joint pain. Unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness, especially with fever or malaise, may indicate serious muscle injury (rhabdomyolysis) and requires immediate medical attention.
• Possible increases in liver enzymes or changes in kidney function tests; your doctor may order periodic blood tests.
• Rarely, gallstones, pancreatitis, severe skin reactions, or allergic reactions (rash, itching, swelling, difficulty breathing) may occur. Seek urgent medical help if severe symptoms develop.
• If you experience persistent or bothersome side effects, contact your healthcare provider for advice.
