description | This review is devoted to pharmacological characteristics, action mechanisms, hypolipidemic activity, and pleiotropic effects of a new hypolipidemic medication – ezetimibe, inhibiting intestinal cholesterol absorption. The combination of ezetimibe with other hypolipidemic drugs (statins, fibrates, bile acid sequestrants) is described in detail. Initial doses of various statins, together with one tablet (10 mg) of ezetimibe, reduce low-density cholesterol level as effectively as maximal statin doses. |
