Zetia (Ezetimibe) is a prescription medication and should not be taken by people who are allergic to any of its ingredients. When Zetia (Ezetimibe) is prescribed with a statin, Zetia (Ezetimibe) should not be taken by women who are nursing or pregnant or who may become pregnant, or by anyone with active liver disease. Statins should not be taken by anyone with these conditions. If you have ever had liver problems or are pregnant or nursing, your doctor will decide if Zetia (Ezetimibe) is right for you. Your doctor may do blood tests to check your liver before you start taking Zetia (Ezetimibe) with a statin and during treatment.
Tell your doctor if you experience unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, weakness, or any medical problems while on Zetia (Ezetimibe). Patients reported few side effects while taking ZETIA. Zetia side effects included tiredness and stomach pain. If you are like many people, you may be using diet and exercise to manage your cholesterol. Or you may be taking a cholesterol-lowering medicine along with dieting and exercising. There are several types of cholesterol-lowering medications available. Of these, the most commonly prescribed class of medicine is called “statins.” Some statins include: Zocor (simvastatin) Pravachol (pravastatin) Lipitor (atorvastatin) Mevacor (lovastatin) Lescol (fluvastatin) Or, you may be taking one of several other medications, such as fibrates, resins, or bile acid sequestrants. Zetia (Ezetimibe) works in a manner unique to cholesterol medications in the way it reduces the amount of cholesterol that is absorbed from the digestive tract. If you’re taking a statin and still not at your cholesterol goal, ask your doctor if Zetia (Ezetimibe) can help you reach your LDL (Bad) Cholesterol goal. If you’re taking a statin, Zetia (Ezetimibe) can boost your results when added to your current therapy. You may find it helpful to know that cholesterol comes from 2 sources. It’s produced naturally in your body, and it’s found in the food you eat. What you may not know is that the amount of LDL (Bad) Cholesterol in your blood is controlled in 2 important places: • Your liver – which produces cholesterol and uses it to make digestive (or bile) acids. • Your digestive tract – which absorbs cholesterol both from food and from bile made by the liver. A statin works in the liver to lower LDL (Bad) Cholesterol. Zetia (Ezetimibe) lowers LDL (Bad) Cholesterol in a different way. Zetia (Ezetimibe) works in the digestive tract to reduce the absorption of cholesterol. So, if you are dieting and taking a statin, adding Zetia (Ezetimibe) can help lower LDL (Bad) Cholesterol even further. If you’re not taking a statin, Zetia (Ezetimibe) along with diet and exercise is still an effective way to reduce your LDL (Bad) Cholesterol if diet alone has not lowered your cholesterol enough. Keep in mind that certain risk factors add to the dangers of LDL (Bad) Cholesterol and put you at a greater risk for a heart attack or stroke. Your doctor or healthcare professional can give you a more detailed explanation. These risk factors include: Low HDL or “Good” Cholesterol Smoking High blood pressure (treated or untreated) Family history of heart disease (father or brother had a heart attack before age 55, or mother or sister had a heart attack before age 65) Male 45 or older Female 55 or older, or at least 45, postmenopausal, and not on estrogen-replacement therapy (ERT) Diabetes Obesity Lack of physical activity High-fat/high-cholesterol diet Buy Zetia (Ezetimibe) from Canada for the lowest price on Zetia (Ezetimibe).
