Ezechol 10mg Tablet contains Ezetimibe, a lipid-lowering agent used to reduce elevated cholesterol levels in the blood. Ezetimibe works by selectively inhibiting the absorption of cholesterol at the small intestine brush border, thereby decreasing the amount of cholesterol delivered to the liver. This action results in a reduction of total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), and apolipoprotein B, which are key contributors to atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. Ezechol is commonly prescribed for patients with primary hypercholesterolemia, mixed hyperlipidemia, or homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia, either as monotherapy or in combination with statins or other lipid-lowering treatments. By lowering LDL cholesterol levels, Ezechol helps reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and other cardiovascular complications. The recommended dosage is typically one 10mg tablet once daily, with or without food, as directed by a healthcare professional. Patients should continue lifestyle modifications such as diet, exercise, and weight control while on therapy. Ezechol is generally well tolerated, but possible side effects include headache, abdominal pain, fatigue, and muscle pain. It is important to inform your doctor of any existing medical conditions or medications to avoid potential interactions.
