What is Zetia

Zetia is not a statin; rather, Zetia (generic name: Ezetimibe) is used alone or with other drugs – such as statins or fibrate – and a low cholesterol/low fat diet to help reduce the amount of cholesterol your body absorbs from your diet. Reducing cholesterol may help prevent stroke and heart attacks and lead to a healthier life. Zetia is in a class of lipid-lowering compounds that selectively inhibits the intestinal absorption of cholesterol and other related phytosterols. Zetia has been shown to reduce cholesterol by 35-60% in most patients and reduce many ailments that come with high cholesterol.

Lowering Bad Cholesterol

Lowering your LDL levels can be a challenge, but many people are able to do so with Zetia and other natural remedies. Some of these natural remedies include going outside and exercising for thirty minutes a day and eating a healthy diet. You should be eating a lot of fruits, veggies, whole grains, legumes and lean meats while avoiding high fat foods, processed foods, and foods high in sugar. Try going for a light jog or walk every day and make sure to get enough Vitamin D from the sun!

Zetia Cost

Zetia is a very expensive drug; the average retail price is around $200-$360, depending on which provider you use. This drug is more popular than other comparable drugs and can help save your life. Even with a coupon, this medication can break the bank if you choose not to get the generic version or if it is not available.
