Description

Etofibrate is the ethandiol-1,2 diester of the nicotinic and clofibric acids. Etofibrate has been shown to be a potent hypolipidemic agent in animal and human.


Etofibrate is a monocarboxylic acid.|Etofibrate is a fibrate produced by the combination of clofibrate ester linked to niacin. These components separate in the body slowly allowing for pharmacokinetics similar to controlled-release formulations.|Etofibrate is an orally-available combination of clofibrate and niacin linked together by an ester bond. In the body clofibrate and niacin separate, acting as a controlled-release formulation.
