About this product
Ezetrol 10mg Tablets contain the active ingredient ezetimibe. This medication is used to treat high cholesterol and works by reducing the cholesterol absorbed in your digestive tract. Here are some key points about Ezetrol:
- Usage: It is used to lower levels of total cholesterol, ‘bad’ cholesterol (LDL cholesterol), and fatty substances called triglycerides in the blood. In addition, Ezetrol raises levels of ‘good’ cholesterol (HDL cholesterol).
- Dosage: The usual recommended dose of ezetimibe for adults and children 10 years of age and older is 10 mg once daily. It may be taken with or without food at any time of the day, but preferably at the same time every day.
- Effectiveness: In two, double-blind, randomised placebo-controlled, 12-week studies in 1719 patients with primary hypercholesterolaemia, Ezetrol 10 mg significantly lowered total-C (13%), LDL-C (19%), Apo B (14%), and TG (8%) and increased HDL-C (3%) compared to placebo.
- Safety: This medicine contains less than 1 mmol sodium (23 mg) per tablet, that is to say essentially sodium-free.
