Colestipol is a bile acid sequestrant used as an adjunct to diet and exercise to reduce LDL-C cholesterol levels in patients with primary hypercholesterolemia.
Colestipol is a lipid-lowering polymer that binds with bile acids in the intestine forming a complex that is excreted in the feces . This non-systemic action results in a continuous, partial removal of bile acids from the enterohepatic circulation preventing their reabsorption . This increased fecal loss of bile acids due to colestipol hydrochloride administration leads to increased oxidation of cholesterol to bile acids . This results in an increase in the number of hepatic low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptors, and consequently an increased uptake of LDL and a decrease in serum/plasma beta lipoprotein or total and LDL cholesterol levels . Although hydrochloride produces an increase in the hepatic synthesis of cholesterol in man, serum cholesterol levels fall .
