Ezetimibe Stada is a drug used to lower elevated blood cholesterol levels.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cholesterol is one of several fats found in your blood. Your total cholesterol consists essentially of LDL – and HDL – cholesterol.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
LDL – cholesterol is often called “bad” cholesterol et because it can build up in the walls of your arteries and form plaque. This plaque storage can eventually lead to a narrowing of your vessels. This narrowing can reduce or block blood flow to important organs such as the heart and brain. Blockage of blood flow can result in a heart attack or stroke.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
HDL – cholesterol is often called “good” cholesterol et because it helps prevent the “bad” cholesterol et from building up in container one and protects against heart disease.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Triglycerides are another type of fat in the blood that can increase the risk of heart disease.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
STADA Ezetimibe reduces blood levels of total cholesterol, the “bad” cholesterol et ( LDL – cholesterol ) and one type of blood lipids called triglycerides s. Ezetimibe Stada also increases the levels of “good” cholesterol ( HDL – cholesterol ).
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ezetimibe, the active ingredient in Ezetimibe Stada, works by reducing the cholesterol uptake into the gastrointestinal tract.
