Colestid

Colestid is a prescription medication that belongs to a class of drugs known as bile acid sequestrants. It is used to lower cholesterol levels in the blood and is often prescribed to patients who have high levels of cholesterol or who are at risk for heart disease. Colestid works by binding to bile acids in the intestines, which helps the body to eliminate cholesterol from the body. It is typically taken in the form of a tablet or powder that is mixed with liquid.
