Description

Acipimox is a niacin derivative used as a hypolipidemic agent. Acipimox inhibits the production of triglycerides by the liver and the secretion of VLDL, which leads indirectly to a modest reduction in LDL and increase in HDL. It is used in Fredrickson type IIb and type IV hyperlipoproteinemia.

Synonyms

2-carboxy-5-methylpyrazine-4-oxide | 5-methylpyrazine-2-carboxylic acid-4-oxide | 5-methylpyrazinecarboxylic acid 4-oxide | acipimox
