Introduction
Molecular Formula: C15H22O3
Molecular Weight: 250.3
CAS No.: 25812-30-0
| Aspect | Details |
|---|---|
| Mechanism of Action | Gemfibrozil activates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR-α), which upregulates lipoprotein lipase (LPL) and reduces triglyceride levels. It also inhibits peripheral lipolysis and decreases hepatic triglyceride production. Additionally, it increases HDL cholesterol levels through an unknown mechanism. |
| Indications | – Lowering elevated triglyceride levels in people at risk of pancreatitis.<br>- Reducing the risk of coronary artery disease in patients with certain types of high cholesterol.<br>- Used in combination with a proper diet to treat high cholesterol and triglyceride levels. |
| Pharmacokinetics | – Absorption: Oral administration, with peak plasma concentration reached in 1 to 2 hours.<br>- Distribution: Highly protein-bound (99%).<br>- Metabolism: Hepatically metabolized into inactive metabolites.<br>- Excretion: 70% excreted in urine, 6% in feces.<br>- Half-Life: Approximately 1.5 hours. |
| Dosage | Available as 600 mg oral tablets, taken twice daily 30 minutes before breakfast and dinner. |
| Special Precautions | – Use with caution in patients with mild to moderate renal impairment.<br>- Contraindicated in severe renal impairment, hepatic impairment, and gallbladder disease.<br>- Monitor for signs of gallstones, muscle pain (myopathy), liver damage, and blood disorders.<br>- Avoid use in breastfeeding women due to potential risks to the infant. |
| Adverse Effects | – Common: Dyspepsia, fatigue, rash, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea.<br>- Serious: Gallstones, cholecystitis, myopathy, rhabdomyolysis, liver damage, blood disorders.<br>- Allergic reactions: Difficulty breathing, swelling, rash. |
| Contraindications | – Severe renal or hepatic impairment.<br>- Presence of gallstones or gallbladder disease.<br>- Hypersensitivity to gemfibrozil.<br>- Co-administration with certain drugs (e.g., simvastatin, repaglinide, dasabuvir) due to increased risk of adverse effects. |
| Storage Conditions | Store at room temperature (68°F to 77°F; 20°C to 25°C), with excursions permitted between 59°F to 86°F (15°C to 30°C). Keep in a cool, dry place. |
