If you have high cholesterol, you will most likely be prescribed a special diet and exercise to lose weight (if you need it). However, if your cholesterol is too high, in addition to the non-pharmacological treatments mentioned above, you will probably also be prescribed drugs to help lower bad cholesterol, because the body often does not respond to non-pharmacological treatments alone. One such drug is Lopid, which is well known in Germany and around the world. Below we explain the properties and effects of this drug. If you are already familiar with this remedy, now is the time to order a new bottle on our website. You will certainly be satisfied with your online purchase, because we offer incredibly favorable prices, fast delivery throughout Germany and the possibility to order the drug without a prescription.

What is Lopid
Lopid is a highly effective drug whose active ingredient is gemfibrozil, which has a lipid-lowering effect. Its relatively low toxicity, compared to other lipid-lowering drugs, is considered a great advantage.
Indications
It is prescribed as an adjunct to diet and other non-pharmacological therapies in the following cases: treatment of severe hypertriglyceridemia, mixed hyperlipidemia or primary hypercholesterolemia, when statins are contraindicated or not tolerated.
The drug is also indicated for the prevention of cardiovascular morbidity in men with elevated non-HDL cholesterol levels and high risk of a first cardiovascular event, when statins are contraindicated or not tolerated.
