My triglycerides are 150 .. the doctor prescribed fenofibrate 200mg plus rosuvastatin 10mg .. isn't that too much??

Second opinion: There's no consensus in mainstream medicine that trivial (like this) or even higher elevations in triglycerides need to be treated at all. Get another opinion and while you are at it, hit the aerobic fitness even Harder. Best wishes
