Bemezy Tablet

Bemezy Tablet is used to lower the levels of bad cholesterol called low-density lipoprotein (LDL), a type of fat in the blood. Bemezy Tablet is given when the other anti-hyperlipidemic medicines like statin (such as simvastatin, a commonly used medicine that treats high cholesterol), bempedoic acid and ezetimibe are not effective in treating your cholesterol (LDL) levels when taken individually. High cholesterol, known as hyperlipidemia or dyslipidemia, occurs when there is an excess of the unhealthy cholesterol balance in the blood.

Bemezy Tablet contains Bempedoic acid and Ezetimibe. Bempedoic acid decreases cholesterol production in the liver and increases the removal of LDL cholesterol from the blood. Ezetimibe works by reducing the cholesterol absorbed in the digestive tract.
