I took fenofibrate for about 9 months and didn't notice anything with regards to tanning more easily. I did, however, have to stop taking it as I started having anxiety attacks, something that I've never had before. I didn't realize that it had anything to do with Fenofibrate and went to the doctor for help with the anxiety issues. I was referred to a phsychiatrist and was prescribed an anxiety med.
I stopped taking the Fenofibrate just as a precaution and slowly the anxiety proble went away. I thought the anxiety issue went away due to the anxiety meds finally kicking in, so I started taking Fenofibrate again and the anxiety issues started up after just a couple days. I stopped taking the Fenofibrate again and the anxiety problem went away.
I had asked my doctor if the Fenofibrate could have been causing the anxiety problem and he said he saw nothing published. I have gone on the internet and found that other people have had issues with anxiety when taking Fenofibrate, but no clinical study has been done.
Has anyone else out there experienced anxiety issues when taking Fenofibrate?
