Fenofibrate is used to improve cholesterol levels in three types of cholesterol problems:

• Mixed dyslipidemia: high levels of LDL (bad) cholesterol and triglycerides, and low levels of HDL (good) cholesterol.
• Severe hypertriglyceridemia: very high levels of triglycerides.
• Primary hypercholesterolemia: very high levels of LDL cholesterol.

Fenofibrate helps lower high levels of harmful cholesterol, mainly triglycerides. It also helps increase levels of HDL (good) cholesterol.
