but the consensus view seems to be that the trial outcome will not materially change prescribing habits for TriCor

Déjà vu--I recall getting these subliminal messages from you before. Cool it! I tried it...and it failed! :)

TriCor belongs to a class of drugs called fibrates.

Correction--'Try Cor' belongs to a class of investors (lol) called losers. :(

P.s. Just poking fun at sticky situation...it's how I deal :)

Fibrates have always had a limited role, used in high triglyceride states. Unfortunately in Accord they had only 162mg% level on average, barely meeting the definition. Fibrates work, but should be used 3rd line behind niacin and of course statins (the gold standard in therapy).

Accord does not change my approach to diabetes or cardiovascular disease.
