Chemical Applications
CAS 38862-65-6 refers to the chemical compound with the name “Fenofibrate.” Fenofibrate is a medication that is primarily used to treat high levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood. It belongs to a class of drugs known as fibric acid derivatives and is commonly prescribed under various brand names, such as Tricor and Lofibra. Here are some of the primary applications of Fenofibrate (CAS 38862-65-6):
- Hyperlipidemia Management: Fenofibrate is primarily used to lower high levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, total cholesterol, and triglycerides in the blood. It can also increase high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels. These actions reduce the risk of atherosclerosis, heart disease, and related cardiovascular events.
- Dyslipidemia Treatment: Fenofibrate is commonly prescribed for individuals with dyslipidemia, a condition characterized by an abnormal lipid profile. It helps normalize the lipid levels in the blood, thus reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease.
- Prevention of Pancreatitis: Elevated levels of triglycerides in the blood can lead to pancreatitis, a painful and potentially serious condition. Fenofibrate is used to lower triglyceride levels, reducing the risk of pancreatitis in individuals with severe hypertriglyceridemia.
- Diabetic Dyslipidemia: People with diabetes often have abnormal lipid profiles, which increase their risk of cardiovascular disease. Fenofibrate is sometimes prescribed to manage lipid levels in diabetic patients, reducing the risk of cardiovascular complications.
- Metabolic Syndrome: Fenofibrate may be used to address the lipid abnormalities associated with metabolic syndrome, a cluster of conditions that increase the risk of heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes.
- Off-Label Uses: In some cases, Fenofibrate may be used off-label for other conditions, such as improving liver function, treating non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), and reducing inflammation.
