Colestipol is a bile acid sequestrant. It works in the gut trapping bile salts, and preventing them from being reabsorbed.

This leads to decreased enterohepatic recirculation of bile salts, increased synthesis of new bile salts by the liver, decreased liver cholesterol, increased LDL receptor expression, and decreasing LDL in blood.

Side effects

Contrandications

Colestipol is contraindicated in hypotriglyceridemia.
