Medications such as nicotinic acid (niacin), fibres (eg fenofibrate, gemfibrozil), and omega-3 fatty acids (over-the-counter fish oil supplements) can help lower triglycerides. Niacin side effects (itching, flushing, liver problems), limit its use, lower cholesterol. Medicines called statins (such as simvastatin, atorvastatin, rosuvastatin) can also lower triglycerides.
