It works by activating PPAR-alpha to speed up lipid metabolism, improving blood fat profiles. Fenofibric acid (often from the prodrug fenofibrate) is used to treat high cholesterol and triglycerides (fats in the blood) by lowering “bad” LDL cholesterol and triglycerides while raising “good” HDL cholesterol, reducing the risk of heart disease, strokes, and pancreatitis, especially when diet and exercise aren’t enough.
