Take orally, once daily, with or without food, at any time of the day. Do not crush or chew the tablet. If taken with a statin, it can be taken at the same time. If taken with a bile acid sequestrant, take Ezetimibe at least 2 hours before or 4 hours after the sequestrant.

Ezetimibe selectively inhibits the absorption of dietary and biliary cholesterol by the small intestine, without affecting the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins, triglycerides, or bile acids. It targets the Niemann-Pick C1-Like 1 (NPC1L1) protein, which is involved in cholesterol uptake.

• •Hypersensitivity to Ezetimibe or any component of the formulation.
• •When co-administered with a statin, refer to the statin's contraindications.
• •Active liver disease or unexplained persistent elevations of serum transaminases (when co-administered with a statin).

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from light and moisture. Keep out of reach of children.

In the event of an overdose, symptomatic and supportive measures should be employed. Ezetimibe is not dialyzable.

Pregnancy Category C. Use during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. It is not known whether ezetimibe is excreted in human milk. Exercise caution when administered to a nursing woman.
