Mode Of Action
Ciprofbrate reduces both LDL & VLDL and hence the levels of triglyceride and cholesterol associated with these lipoprotein fractions. It also increases levels of HDL cholesterol. Ciprofbrate is effective in the treatment of hyperlipidemia associated with high plasma concentrations of LDL and VLDL. There is evidence that treatment with fibrates may reduce coronary heart disease events.
Pregnancy
There is no evidence that Ciprofbrate is teratogenic but signs of toxicity at high doses were observed in teratogenicity tests in animals. As there are no data on its use in human pregnancy, Ciprofbrate is contraindicated during pregnancy. As there are no data on its use in lactation, Ciprofbrate is contraindicated in nursing mothers.
