Fenolip 145 Tablet is a prescription medication used to treat high cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood. It contains fenofibrate (145 mg) as the active ingredient and is manufactured by Cipla Ltd.. 
Uses and Benefits
Fenolip 145 is used in conjunction with a healthy diet and exercise to lower harmful fats in the blood and manage related health risks. 
  • High Cholesterol: It reduces levels of “bad” cholesterol (LDL – low-density lipoprotein) and total cholesterol.
  • High Triglycerides: It is particularly effective at lowering high levels of triglycerides (fat-like substances), which helps minimize the risk of conditions like pancreatitis.
  • Cardiovascular Disease Prevention: By improving the lipid profile (lowering bad fats and raising “good” cholesterol or HDL), it reduces the risk of heart attack and stroke.
  • Dyslipidemia: It helps manage abnormal levels of both cholesterol and triglycerides simultaneously. 
Key Information
  • Administration: The tablet should be swallowed whole with a glass of water, and it should be taken with food to ensure proper absorption and reduce stomach upset.
  • Dosage: It is typically taken once daily, but always follow your doctor’s specific dosage and duration instructions.
  • Consistency: Take the medicine at the same time each day to maintain a steady level in your body.
  • Lifestyle: This medication is part of a comprehensive treatment plan that should include a low-fat diet, regular exercise, weight management, and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol consumption.

Most side effects are generally mild and temporary. 
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Abdominal (stomach) pain

  • Muscle Pain: Inform your doctor immediately if you experience unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, cramps, or weakness, especially if it is accompanied by a fever. This could be a sign of a rare but serious muscle condition (rhabdomyolysis).

  • Alcohol: Avoid consuming alcohol, as it can increase the risk of liver damage and other side effects.
