Abstract: The invention relates to reduced dose oral pharmaceutical composition of fenofibrate which exhibits substantial bioequivalence to Antara® Capsules under fasting condition and also capable of reducing the food effect on bioavailability of fenofibrate. Provided is a pharmaceutical composition comprising about 90 mg of fenofibrate particles having a D90 particle size of less than about 600 nm and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, wherein the pharmaceutical composition is a solid dosage form suitable for oral administration and is substantially free of food effect such that when administered orally to a human provides an AUC0-t value for fenofibric acid in the blood plasma of the human under a fed state which is higher than the AUC0-t value under a fasted state by up to 12%, wherein t is 96 hours from the administration of the pharmaceutical composition.
Abstract: A method of treating metabolic syndrome in a human diagnosed with metabolic syndrome by administering a therapeutically effective amount of fenofibrate over a treatment period. The results can include identifying a human as not having clinical metabolic syndrome after treatment, as compared to having metabolic syndrome before treatment.
