Aluminium clofibrate or alfibrate is the basic salt of aluminium with clofibric acid. It is one of the fibrate class of lipid modifying agents,[1] that has been used for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia.

Aluminium clofibrate was introduced to counter the mild stomach upsets which are sometimes associated with fibrate treatment. It is hydrolysed in the stomach to aluminium salts (known antacids) and clofibric acid. However, clofibrate treatment for hypercholesterolemia is now regarded as obsolete due to the unacceptable side-effect profile, particularly the incidence of gallstones.[2]
