Can I Just Stop The Finofibrate Medication That I Have Been Taking For Nearly Two Years ?
I have been on finofibrate medication for nearly two years. Not for my cholesterol being bad my cholesterol was acceptable it had to do with my sugar? I had when I was younger early twenties had reacurring pancreatic cysts. I had a heart procedure done two yrs ago. An ablation? I have multiple lipomas and degenerative disc. I have been my mother's care taker for the past seven years making it difficult to get to regular appointments with my primary care doctor her nurse said that I can stop taking the fenofibrate when she would not fill it. However I become extremely ill when I don't. Is this true that I can just stop?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
The drug "Finofibrate" has nothing to do with your clinical complain, or the pathology you have you can continue this medicine, if you are feeling sick then the reason would be something else and not the drug ,for the illness I would advise you to see the doctor and have word with the doctor, have nice day.
