what are withdrawal symptoms ? ## HI, Prabhu! Lipicure TG contains Atorvastatin and Fenofibrate, it's used to help lower cholesterol. That said, it's not addictive like a narcotic or something would be, so you wouldn't suffer those severe types of withdrawal symptoms that can include nausea, dizziness, headache and diarrhea. The problem with this type of medication is that a sudden withdrawal may actually cause your cholesterol levels to rise to dangerous levels. If you've been taking it for awhile, this happens because your body basically forgets how to balance them without the assist of the medication. Is your doctor aware that you're stopping it? You should make sure to consult with them first, for you own safety.
