Suggest Remedy For Hypertension

I am 57 years female, 5ft 5in height and 62 kg weight.
I am on Revelol am 25/2.5 for my hypertension and recently my lipid profile showed that my total cholestrol was 260 and Triglyceride was 270. I have been asked to take Fibator for three months before the next evaluation. Is it safe to take Fibator for three months? What are the side effects?
