Description
Indications
Colestipol is prescribed in conjunction with dietary modifications to reduce the levels of lipid compounds, specifically low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, commonly referred to as “bad cholesterol,” in individuals with elevated cholesterol levels.
Colestipol belongs to a group of medications known as bile acid sequestrants. Its mechanism of action involves the binding of bile acids in the intestines, resulting in the formation of a complex that is subsequently eliminated from the body.
Uses and Dosage
Colestipol is available in tablet and granule form for oral administration. The tablets are typically taken once or twice daily, while the granules are taken one to six times daily. Take colestipol exactly as directed, without exceeding or reducing the prescribed dosage frequency.
Unless otherwise advised, take all other medications at least one hour before or four hours after taking colestipol, as it may interfere with their absorption.
Swallow the tablets whole with a glass of water or another suitable liquid, avoiding chewing, splitting, or crushing them.
Your doctor may adjust your dosage gradually at intervals of one to two months, depending on your individual response to the medication.
Continue taking colestipol even if you feel well. Do not discontinue its use without consulting your doctor.
The granules should not be taken dry. Mix them with at least 3 ounces (90 milliliters) of a liquid such as fruit juice, water, milk, or a soft drink. Stir the mixture until fully dissolved. If a carbonated beverage is used, mix it slowly in a large glass to minimize foaming. After taking the dose, rinse the glass with a small amount of additional liquid and consume it to ensure you receive the entire dose.
Colestipol can also be mixed with hot or regular breakfast cereals, thin soups like tomato or chicken noodle, or pulpy fruits such as crushed pineapple, pears, peaches, and fruit cocktail.
