You may not be if
1. Current or planned use of fibrates or agents with PPAR-α agonist activity (eg, saroglitazar) within 6 weeks (42 days) of Visit 1 (Screening/Enrollment Visit). Note: PPAR-γ agonists (eg, glizatones such as pioglitazone and rosiglitazone) are allowed
2. Known sensitivity to PPAR-α agonists or tablet excipients
3. Initiation of, or change in, current TG-lowering therapy within 12 weeks of Visit 1 (if applicable). Note: TG-lowering therapy is defined as niacin \> 100 mg/day or dietary supplements or prescription omega-3 fatty acids \> 1 g/day
