Drug Drug Description Fenofibrate A peroxisome proliferator receptor alpha activator used to lower LDL-C, total-C, triglycerides, and Apo B, while increasing HDL-C in hypercholesterolemia, dyslipidemia, and hypertriglyceridemia. Gemfibrozil A lipid regulator that is used in the reduction of serum triglyceride levels in high-risk patients with hyperlipidemia. 2-aminoisobutyric acid Not Available Faldaprevir Faldaprevir has been investigated for the treatment of Chronic Hepatitis C. Voxilaprevir A nonstructural protein 3 and 4a protease inhibitor used to treat Hepatitis C infections. Glecaprevir A Hepatitis C NS3/4A protease inhibitor used to treat Hepatitis C. Clofibrate A fibric acid derivative used to treat hypertriglyceridemia and high cholesterol. Bezafibrate A lipid-lowering fibrate used in the management of primary and secondary hyperlipidaemia, when there is a lack of clinical improvement following lifestyle modifications or correction of the underlying disorder. Etofibrate Etofibrate is a fibrate produced by the combination of clofibrate ester linked to niacin. These components separate in the body slowly allowing for pharmacokinetics similar to controlled-release formulations.
