Why is creatinine elevated with both fenofibrate and epinastat?

Elevated creatinine after concomitant use of fenofibrate and epalrestat is primarily considered to be an adverse reaction to taking epalrestat. After taking Epalrestat, adverse reactions such as elevated creatinine, elevated bilirubin, and elevated AST can occur. And after taking fenofibrate, adverse reactions such as myalgia, rash, elevated transaminases, and dyspepsia can occur. Therefore, elevated creatinine after concomitant use of fenofibrate and epalrestat is mainly due to adverse reactions. Epalrestat non-competitively inhibits aldose reductase, improves peripheral nerve function, and can be used for diabetes-induced neuropathy. Urine may be maroon in color after administration, which is normal after administration. The interaction of this drug with other drugs is not known.
