What is Ezetimibe?
Active Ingredients: Ezetimibe
Ezetimibe Tablets are a drug used to treat hypercholesterolemia (high cholesterol), particularly primary hyperlipidemia and familial cholesterolemia in adults and certain children over the age of 10. It may be prescribed as a monotherapy or in combination with other medications, such as statins or fenofibrate.
Ezetimibe is classified as a novel cholesterol-lowering medicine. It works by inhibiting cholesterol absorption. It also decreases hepatic cholesterol stores and increases the clearance of blood cholesterol.
