Ezechol 10Mg 30Tab

Ezechol is a medication used to treat high cholesterol levels in the blood. It belongs to a class of drugs known as cholesterol absorption inhibitors. It works by reducing the amount of cholesterol that the body absorbs from food, helping to improve total and harmful cholesterol levels.

Ezechol works by inhibiting a protein called Niemann-Pick C1-like 1 (NPC1L1) that plays a key role in cholesterol absorption from the intestines. By reducing cholesterol absorption, this medication helps lower levels of harmful cholesterol (LDL) and increase levels of good cholesterol (HDL). This treatment is effective in reducing the risk of cardiovascular diseases associated with high cholesterol.
