Zetia Information

Zetia (Ezetimibe) is used to reduce elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), or bad cholesterol, in the blood. It is used for individuals with primary hyperlipidemia (too much fat in the blood), including those with an inherited disorder that causes high levels of bad cholesterol (familial hypercholesterolemia). It is typically used with dietary modifications, lifestyle changes, and sometimes with cholesterol-lowering medications called statins. It is usually prescribed after statins and lifestyle changes have failed to reduce cholesterol levels. Cholesterol is a fatty substance in your blood that can block your blood vessels if levels become too high. This blockage can make a person more likely to have heart problems or a stroke.

Zetia is also used to treat a rare genetic condition called homozygous sitosterolemia (or phytosterolemia). This inherited disorder prevents the body from correctly processing and excreting plant sterols (like sitosterol) that we absorb from food. These plant fats build up in the blood and tissues, potentially leading to premature cardiovascular diseases, sometimes starting in childhood.

Ezetimibe belongs to a class of drugs known as selective cholesterol-absorption inhibitors. Unlike statins, which work primarily in the liver to block cholesterol production, ezetimibe works in the small intestine. It selectively blocks the absorption of cholesterol and related plant sterols into the blood (both dietary and biliary) by targeting a key transport protein on the brush border of the intestinal wall. This results in a reduction in the delivery of cholesterol from the intestine to the liver, which then, in a cascade effect, prompts the liver to clear more cholesterol from the blood. This effectively reduces LDL-C by preventing a large chunk of cholesterol from ever entering the body's blood circulation.
