For a kick off Lopid is not a statin but rather contains a chemical called a fibrate which lowers triacyglyceride concentrations in the blood. A statin specifically reduces cholesterol (and works by blocking an enzyme which is involved in the synthesis of cholesterol) but not other types of lipids which have different metabolic routes.
There are a whole range of fibrates, Fenofibrate (lipanthyl), Gemfibrozil (Lopid) for a starter. They all work by activating a specific receptor which is responsible for clearing fats out of the bloodstream.
Fibrates are often used in conjunction with statins in order to lower overall lipid concentrations,
Given the above I would strongly suggest that you do not self-medicate but rather see you local quack!
(Gawd... I can still remember what I thought was long-lost biochemistry!)
