AntaraAntara is used for the treatment of high cholesterol and high triglycerides. It is only approved for use in adults, and is available in two different strengths. The medication, which is a form of fibrate, works by increasing the production of an enzyme (known as lipoprotein lipase) that breaks down triglyceride-rich particles and increases their removal from the body.
