What are your thoughts on colestipol?



Fairly weak at lowering LDL levels with no significant mortality data one way or the other that I’m aware of. I would not take it for my LDL with what else is available. Ezetimibe or or bempedoic acid would be the others I’d consider adding, generally.

Food for thought. If I ever have a need for lowering my LDL, I'll keep in mind. Thanks! My last test in December for LDL was 99.
