Hi,
Tonact TG tablet contains both atorvastatin and fenofibrate which is used in the reducing the levels of lipids like cholesterol and triglycerides. It is also used to prevent heart attacks or strokes in the near future. Side effects of Tonact TG tablet are nausea, vomiting, headache, abdominal pain, constipation, flatulence, muscle pain, sweating, elevated liver enzymes, increased glucose level in blood, cough, difficulty in swallowing, joint pain, changes in sleep pattern, difficulty in breathing, runny nose, back pain, fatigue, tiredness, weakness, dyspepsia, chest pain, dizziness, bleeding or bruising, visual disturbances, cholestasis, allergic reactions etc.

Do repeat fasting lipid profile test after three months and inform your doctor about the investigation reports.
