Regular monitoring of cholesterol, liver, and kidney function is crucial.
Common adverse effects include headache, muscular soreness, nausea, and digestive problems. Serious side effects may include muscular breakdown (rhabdomyolysis), abnormal liver enzymes, and allergic reactions. Contact your doctor if you experience severe symptoms such as chronic muscle pain, dark urine, jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes), or any signs of a strong allergic response (rash, itching, swelling).

TRITONACT works by combining Atorvastatin, a statin, and Fenofibrate, a fibrate. Atorvastatin acts by blocking the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, which decreases cholesterol production in the liver, lowering LDL and triglyceride levels while raising HDL. Fenofibrate acts by boosting triglyceride breakdown and lipid removal from the bloodstream.
