Almost one third of Americans have high cholesterol. Fatty diet, lack of exercise, and obesity are some contributors to this rise in unhealthy cholesterol levels. Elevated levels of bad cholesterol increase chances of heart attack and stroke, two of the leading causes of death in the United States. When plaque builds up in the walls of the arteries, this increases the patient’s chance of heart disease. To avoid the narrowing of arteries and control cholesterol in the body, Zetia may be prescribed.
What Is Zetia?
Zetia is used by people who cannot control their cholesterol levels through diet and exercise alone. This medication belongs to a class of drugs called lipid-lowering agents that work by lowering the total cholesterol and the bad cholesterol (LDL) in the blood. Good cholesterol or HDL is also needed by the body. Zetia retains HDL while reducing Apo B, a protein that carries bad cholesterol. By managing LDL, Zetia also reduces the risk of life-threatening diseases.
Lowers Risk of Heart Disease
Patients with high cholesterol are at-risk for myocardial infarction or heart attack, which occurs when an area of the heart doesn’t get enough oxygen. This usually happens when blood flow to the heart is blocked due to narrowed arteries. By reducing plaque buildup, Zetia lowers the risk of blockage, thus reducing chances of a heart attack.
Another disease that is life-threatening is stroke, which is the number 5 cause of death in the United States. A stroke happens when the vessels leading up to the brain are blocked by clots. People with healthy levels of cholesterol are at less risk for stroke than those with high cholesterol. Zetia is an inhibitor that works by reducing the total amount of cholesterol absorbed by the body.
Clinically Proven for Efficacy
Clinical studies conducted in both children and adults have proven the efficacy of affordable Zetia when used alone or with other medication. Results showed that Zetia reduced the average total cholesterol in adults by 13-14% while reducing average bad cholesterol by 18%. Children are becoming more and more at-risk for high cholesterol as well. Research showed that Zetia reduced total cholesterol in children by 12%.
