Ezetrol (Ezetimibe) 10mg 28 Tablets contains the active ingredient Ezetimibe. It is used to help lower levels of cholesterol. Ezetrol works by reducing the cholesterol absorbed in your digestive tract.

Ezetrol reduces lipid and total cholesterol levels in the blood as well as "bad" cholesterol (LDL cholesterol). Ezetrol also increases amounts of "good" cholesterol (HDL cholesterol).

Ezetrol enhances the cholesterol-lowering effects of statins, a class of drugs that lowers the cholesterol your body naturally produces.

The bloodstream contains a number of fatty compounds, including cholesterol. LDL and HDL cholesterol account for a large portion of your overall cholesterol.

LDL cholesterol, which can create plaque in the walls of your arteries, is frequently referred to as "bad" cholesterol. This plaque accumulation may eventually cause the arteries to constrict. Blood flow to critical organs may be slowed or blocked by this narrowing, such as the brain and the heart. A heart attack or stroke may occur as a consequence of this blood flow obstruction.

Because it prevents heart disease and keeps harmful cholesterol from accumulating in the arteries, HDL cholesterol is frequently referred to as "good" cholesterol.

Another type of blood fat called triglycerides may raise your chance of developing heart disease.

Patients who are unable to reduce their cholesterol levels through diet alone are treated with it. While taking this medication, you should continue to follow your cholesterol-lowering diet.

Ezetrol combined with the cholesterol-lowering drugs known as statins lowers the risk of heart attack, stroke, surgery to improve heart blood flow, or hospitalisation for chest pain if you have heart disease.

Ezetrol does not aid in weight loss.
