Ezetib 10 MG Tablet 10 contains ezetimibe (10 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Cholesterol absorption inhibition: Ezetimibe targets a specific protein in your small intestine called Niemann-Pick C1-Like 1 (NPC1L1), which is responsible for absorbing cholesterol from your food into your bloodstream.

• Reduced intestinal uptake: By blocking the NPC1L1 protein, this medicine prevents cholesterol from being absorbed through the walls of your small intestine, effectively reducing the amount that enters your bloodstream.

• Decreased blood cholesterol: With less cholesterol being absorbed from your diet, the overall levels of cholesterol in your blood decrease, particularly the harmful LDL cholesterol.

• Complementary action: Unlike medicines that reduce cholesterol production in the liver, ezetimibe works specifically in your digestive system, making it effective when used alone or alongside other cholesterol-lowering medicines.
