Fenofibrate 145 Mg And Severe Stomach Bloating
UpdatedMy Dr put me on Fenofibrate along with another cholesterol med. Now I have severe stomach bloating. I am so embarrassed. Should I cut my Fenofibrate in 1/2? I don't know what Dr to trust anymore. I am 54 and am so confused.

Hello, Lisa! How are you? What other medication are you taking?
According to FDA reports, most medications can cause bloating, but it is hard to say, without knowing what all you are taking.
Why were you prescribed more than one medication to lower cholesterol?
More recent peer reviewed research is showing that high cholesterol is not a contributing risk factor for heart disease, or heart attack. While more studies need to be done, doctors generally shouldn't resort to immediately medicating people.
