Adverse Reactions
The most commonly reported adverse reactions: Gastrointestinal: Digestive, gastric or intestinal disorders (abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea and flatulence) moderate in severity.
Skin: Reactions such as rashes, pruritus, urticaria or photosensitivity reactions in individual cases (even after many months of uncomplicated use) cutaneous photosensitivity may occur with erythema, vesiculation or nodulation on parts of the skin exposed to sunlight or artificial UV light (e.g. sunlamp).
Less frequently reported adverse reactions: Liver: Moderately elevated levels of serum transaminases may be found in some patients (see Precautions). Episodes of hepatitis have been reported very rarely. When symptoms (e.g. jaundice, pruritus) indicative of hepatitis occur, laboratory tests are to be conducted for verification and fenofibrate discontinued, if applicable (see Precautions).
Muscle: As with other lipid lowering agents cases of muscle toxicity (diffuse myalgia, myositis, muscular cramps and weakness) and very rare cases of rhabdomyolysis have been reported. These effects are usually reversible when the drug is withdrawn (see Precautions).
In rare cases, the following effects are reported: Gallstones (but any causal relationship remains inconclusive), sexual asthenia and alopecia.
Increases in serum creatinine and urea, which are generally slight, and also slight decrease in haemoglobin and leukocytes may be observed.
