Ezetimibe Tablets IP
Ezetimibe Tablets IP is a cholesterol-lowering medicine used to reduce LDL cholesterol levels by decreasing the absorption of cholesterol from the intestine.
Product Details
Ezetimibe Tablets IP is a lipid-lowering medicine used to help manage high cholesterol levels. It works mainly by reducing the absorption of dietary and biliary cholesterol in the small intestine, helping lower the amount of cholesterol entering the bloodstream. It may be used alone or along with a statin and lifestyle measures when appropriate.
Key Benefits
- Helps reduce elevated LDL (bad) cholesterol levels
- Reduces intestinal absorption of cholesterol
- Supports improved overall blood lipid levels
- May be used with statins for additional cholesterol reduction
- Helps support long-term cardiovascular health
How It Works
Ezetimibe selectively inhibits cholesterol absorption in the small intestine. This reduces the amount of cholesterol delivered to the liver and increases the liver's uptake of cholesterol from the blood, helping lower circulating LDL cholesterol levels.
Common Side Effects
- Headache
- Diarrhea
- Abdominal discomfort
- Fatigue
- Muscle pain
- Nausea
Important Information
Ezetimibe should be used under the guidance of a healthcare professional. When used with a statin, liver function may need to be monitored. Patients should inform their doctor about existing liver problems, muscle-related symptoms, pregnancy, breastfeeding, and other medicines they are taking. Persistent or unexplained muscle pain or weakness should be reported promptly.
