Trilpix 135mg First Dose

Updated

I took my first dose in the morning. By later that evening, I had several gut wrenching cramps. They were bearable but very uncomfortable. They got worse, Then I had explosive diarrhea! So far that is the only side effect I am aware of. I'll keep you posted

Dr gave me Trilipix (135) after bad reaction to statins. I've taken it 4 days & had heartburn so bad it woke me from sleep. I'm done with it! I've had nothing but bad reactions to cholesterol medicnes. I'm thinking the cure is worse than the disease!

Trilipix contains the active ingredient Fenofibric Acid, it is used to help lower cholesterol.

Unfortunately, all medications carry the risk of side effects and some people are much more sensitive to them than others.

For this particular one, heartburn is a very common side effect, along with: nausea, muscle aches and an increase in liver enzymes.

Did you have any other questions?

I am a baby boomer and do not want to become a slave to pills that hurt your liver and who knows what else. I have been on Mona Vie a juice drink that contains juices from 19 fruits and vegetables. It is all natural, and my cholesteral number in 7 months have dropped from 251 to 167. The only thing doctors can do is subcribe pills. Look it up on the internet. You don't need to take pills the rest of your life.

Was on Trilipix for 4 months. Had really bad leg stiffness. Got off for one month but trigs went up to 1400. Strted bak on for past 6 weeks. Trigs are now 190, but legs are stiff again and had a real bad back muscle spasm that needed muscle relaxant for. Not sure what to do.

I have been on this drug for over a week now with only one small noticeable side effect, small headache. Other than this, nothing. I know it is early and I can only hope I will not have any issues.

I was told that high triglycerides will also cause your liver enzymes to rise. Should I even be on this drug if I already have liver enzyme issues due to high triglycerides?

Just started taking the dose and worried about side effects.
They say your first reactions happen same day. I'm worried that I may be allergic to it , I'm allergic to contrast dye used in MRI tests. For me that was a surprise.
My trig's are through the roof , very sensitive to sugars, I thought only man produced turns out all natural sugars from fruit as well. Not happy about that I love fruit. Veges need to take center stage for now on. Used to be a quarter of what I eat on my plate , now it must be half.
