View approved original text

This medication helps lower elevated triglyceride levels in patients with endogenous hypertriglyceridemia. It is particularly effective when used alone for hypertriglyceridemia (Type IV). Furthermore, for hypercholesterolemia combined with hypertriglyceridemia (Type IIb), it significantly aids in blood lipid control when used in combination with statin drugs. Such combination therapy is effective even when triglyceride levels are not being managed. Therefore, this drug beneficially acts on improving blood lipids in various hyperlipidemia patients.

How to take

Precautions

This medicine should not be used in patients who are allergic to its ingredients or in children under 18 years of age. It should be used cautiously in patients at high risk of bleeding due to severe trauma or surgery, patients with poor liver function, and patients with fish allergies. During the use of this medication, side effects such as indigestion, rash, dizziness, headache, constipation, and nausea may occur, and in rare cases, serious heart problems or bleeding may happen; thus, if any abnormal symptoms arise, consult a doctor immediately. Before starting treatment, it is important to check triglyceride levels with a blood test and to also engage in non-drug treatments like weight management, dietary therapy, and exercise. Regular blood tests should be conducted to monitor liver function and cholesterol levels during medication; if no effect is observed after taking it for more than 2 months, it should be discontinued. If taken with medications that pose a bleeding risk, bleeding times may be prolonged, so careful monitoring per medical personnel's instructions is required. Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should only use this drug after consulting a doctor, as its safety has not been sufficiently established. Safety and efficacy in children or the elderly have not been adequately proven, so it is not recommended. In cases of overdose, there are no specific antidotes, and treatment and supportive therapy according to symptoms are necessary. Store this medication out of reach of children and do not transfer it to other containers.
