Gemfibrozil is a medication that belongs to a group of drugs known as fibrates. It works by decreasing triglycerides and increasing high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels in your blood. This helps reduce the risk of pancreatitis and coronary artery disease. Gemfibrozil is suitable for individuals with high levels of triglycerides who are at risk of developing heart-related conditions.
About Gemfibrozil
Dosage and usage
You should take Gemfibrozil exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. The typical dosage is usually 600 mg taken twice a day, 30 minutes before your morning and evening meals. Your doctor may adjust your dose based on your response to the medication. It is important not to exceed the recommended dosage. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, but do not take two doses at once. If you have any concerns about your dosage or usage, consult your doctor.
What Gemfibrozil contains
Gemfibrozil tablets contain 600 mg of gemfibrozil as the active ingredient. The tablets also include excipients such as microcrystalline cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, povidone, and magnesium stearate.
Side effects
Common side effects of Gemfibrozil may include stomach pain, diarrhea, and muscle pain. Serious side effects that require immediate medical attention include signs of liver problems (e.g., persistent nausea, stomach/abdominal pain, yellowing eyes/skin) and signs of a severe allergic reaction (e.g., rash, itching/swelling, severe dizziness, trouble breathing).
Precautions
Do not take Gemfibrozil if you have severe liver or kidney disease, gallbladder disease, or if you are allergic to gemfibrozil. Inform your healthcare provider about all your medical conditions, especially if you have a history of gallstones, diabetes, or hypothyroidism. It is important to mention all the medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs and herbal supplements, as some medications can interact with Gemfibrozil. If you have any concerns or questions about using Gemfibrozil, talk to your doctor before starting the medication.

I am so grateful to Doctoronline.co.uk and I can’t express my appreciation enough, as they were there when I couldn’t get an appointment with my own NHS GP here in London.They are absolutely amazing and they have taken away the stress and anxiety that I felt when I needed a GP appointment and the thought of going through the whole process and worrying about missing a telephone call from my GP practice because I was working and knowing they wouldn’t call back .
Excellent service.
Medication at a good price, quickly and securely delivered. Sensible but non intrusive questionnaire, and reassuring reviews.Will happily use Doctoronline again.

Very efficient
Very efficient. The website order form was simple and easy to follow. I couldn't get a doctor's appointment for a medication I have previously been prescribed so I opted to buy from this company instead. The price was reasonable and the medication worked perfectly and quickly and eradicated the problem, I'm back to good health again. It arrived quickly. I wouldn't hesitate to use this company again if necessary when I can't get a doctor's appointment.

An excellent experience.
This was an excellent experience which actually surpassed my expectations.I required a medication fairly urgently and probably just a one off however I will have no hesitation in using the service again if need be.The service was exceptionally good, courteous and helpful. My meds arrived very rapidly and I was able to fully track the delivery progress which was via a well established courier company.Highly recommend.
Quick and straightforward assessment
Quick and straightforward assessment, easy to order, fast delivery service, ability to ask questions via email, regarding the medication you’ve ordered. The only thing I was slightly disappointed with, was when I made my second order on the medication I previously purchased, as the price went up by almost £10.
Great service
