Statin drugs mainly lower cholesterol levels, take one tablet every night because cholesterol synthesis is more active at night. The main purpose of fenofibrate is to lower triglycerides, one oral tablet in the morning can be taken once a day. After taking it to a certain extent, the patient is not recommended to stop taking it immediately after the blood lipid level is obviously reduced to the normal range.
