Fibrate

In medicine, fibrates are antilipemic agents for treating hyperlipidemia. Fibrates lower triglycerides by being agonists of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (PPAR alpha) Examples include:
 * Bezafibrate
 * Clofenapate
 * Clofibrate
 * Gemfibrozil
 * Procetofen

Clinical use
A systematic review of randomized controlled trials of fibrates concluded "In addition to improving lipid profiles, fibrates are associated with an important decrease in nonfatal myocardial infarction, but do not substantially affect all-cause mortality."
