Vytorin (ezetimibe, simvastatin) is a combination medication to help users lower high blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels. It contains two active ingredients, which, when combined into the same tablet, are not only more convenient, but a little more potent than when the two medications are taken separately.

In Europe patients buy Vytorin under the brand name Inegy. The medication can be used in patients age 10 and up.

How Vytorin Works

Vytorin is effective at lowering elevated cholesterol and triglycerides in the body. The product contains two medications, both of which help lower cholesterol:

• Ezetimibe inhibits the absorption of cholesterol in the small intestine, which decreases the amount of cholesterol delivered to the liver.
• Simvastatin is a statin, which works by inhibiting the body's ability to make its own cholesterol.

One can also buy Vytorin's two ingredients separately, ezetimibe as the well-known Zetia and simvastatin as the even more well-known Zocor.

Vytorin is prescribed to individuals who have also modified their diets, but diet modification alone is not enough to lower cholesterol. Lowering cholesterol and triglyceride levels reduces risk of blood vessel issues, including heart attack and stroke.

Some patients are started on a single medication at first, such as Zetia or Zocor, then told to buy Vytorin when the single medication does not produce good results. Others may be started on Vytorin, if it is likely that multiple medications will be needed. Still others might be taking both ezetimibe and simvastatin, and want to combine the two into a single tablet.

Taking Vytorin

Vytorin dosage depends on a number of factors, including other medications being taken, other medical conditions present, and other individual variables like age and weight. In general, for otherwise healthy adults:

• Patients are typically started on 10/10 mg ezetimibe/simvastatin per day. Some will be started on 10/20 mg per day.
• After two weeks, dosage may be increased, if needed, to 10/40 mg ezetimibe/simvastatin per day.
• Patients who need a large reduction of cholesterol may be started on 10/40 mg per day.

Tablets are taken once per day, usually in the evening. Taking with food is optional. Full effects can be seen after two weeks of treatment or following dosage adjustments.

Rarely some patients are instructed to buy Vytorin in 10/80 mg. This higher dosage is relatively unusual, due to the increased risk of side effects. Patients are never started on this dosage, and will need to be monitored for the first year of treatment for muscle disorders, which can lead to kidney failure.

Vytorin is known to cause serious birth defects and should not be used while pregnant or breastfeeding. The medication is known to interact with a range of other medications, and may not be ideal for individuals who have other major medical conditions. Patients who are over 65 years old or of Chinese descent will also need special attention.
