I was prescribed Tricor 48mg Tablets to help manage my high triglyceride and cholesterol levels. I've been on them for about a month now, and while I'm hopeful they're doing their job, I'm also feeling some anxiety about the potential side effects. Fenofibrate is supposed to help break down and remove fats in the blood, but the list of side effects is daunting. I've experienced some mild stomach discomfort, but nothing too severe. However, I'm worried about the possibility of more serious issues like liver problems or even pancreatitis. Has anyone else had experience with these side effects? Or, if not, any tips on how to manage the potential symptoms would be much appreciated. I'm especially concerned about the back pain side effect, as I already deal with chronic back issues. Weighing all this, anyone feel like the pros of taking Tricor have outweighed the cons? Let's discuss!
