Venlafaxine use may be associated with severe hypertriglyceridemia in older adult patients with chronic kidney disease on hemodialysis, especially when lipid-lowering therapy is discontinued.
Lin et al. (2017) conducted a case report in Severe hypertriglyceridemia (n=1). Venlafaxine vs. Periods on fenofibrate alone was evaluated on Serum triglyceride levels. Venlafaxine use in an older adult on hemodialysis was associated with severe hypertriglyceridemia, with triglyceride levels peaking at 1,008 mg/dL after discontinuing fenofibrate.
