Message definition (Fat)
The decision to treat hypertriglyceridemia with medication depends on the levels and on the presence of other risk factors for cardiovascular disease. Very high levels that would increase the risk of pancreatitis are treated with a drug from the [[fibrate]] class. [[Niacin (nutrient)|Niacin]] and omega-3 fatty acids as well as drugs from the [[statin]] class may be used in conjunction, with statins being the main medication for moderate hypertriglyceridemia when reduction of cardiovascular risk is required.
