Cholestyramine is used to lower cholesterol in patients who are at risk of complications from heart disease, such as heart attack, stroke, and chronic chest pain. This drug may be prescribed for patients whose cholesterol levels are not controlled by a healthy diet alone. This drug can also be used to treat itching caused by a blockage in the bile ducts of the gallbladder.
Cholestyramine belongs to the bile acid sequestrants drug class, and it works by binding to bile acids and preventing the absorption of bile acids in the blood. The body then converts blood cholesterol into bile acids, reducing the levels of cholesterol in the blood.
To make sure Cholestyramine is right for you, tell your doctor if you have other medical problems, such as chronic constipation, thyroid problems, gallstones, bleeding problems, digestive problems, kidney disease, or coronary artery disease.
Taking Cholestyramine can make it harder for your body to absorb certain vitamins over time. Your doctor may recommend that you take a vitamin supplement. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, you may have a greater need for vitamin supplements. Talk to your healthcare provider for further information and medical advice on using Cholestyramine.
A daily dose of 8 to 12 grams of Cholestyramine will reduce LDL cholesterol by about 12 to 18%, along with lowering the risk of coronary artery disease.
If you miss a dose of Cholestyramine, take it as soon as you can. If it is almost time for the next dose, skip the missed dose. Do not take two doses at once.
