Description
Ezechol 10mg Tablets contain ezetimibe, a medication used to lower cholesterol levels. Ezetimibe works by reducing the amount of cholesterol absorbed in the intestines, which helps to lower total cholesterol, “bad” LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides, while increasing “good” HDL cholesterol. This medication is often prescribed for individuals with high cholesterol who cannot control their levels through diet alone, and it can be used in combination with statins for enhanced effect.
Dosage/Directions: The typical dosage for adults is one 10mg tablet taken once daily, with or without food. It is important to continue following a cholesterol-lowering diet while taking this medication. Always follow your healthcare provider’s instructions regarding dosage and duration of treatment.
Side Effects: Common side effects include headache, diarrhea, upper respiratory tract infection, and joint pain. Serious side effects may include liver problems, muscle pain, and severe allergic reactions. If you experience any severe side effects, contact your healthcare provider immediately.
