Comprehensive Drug Guide

How Does Nexlizet Work?

Bempedoic acid works by inhibiting ATP citrate lyase, an enzyme involved in the cholesterol synthesis pathway in the liver. Ezetimibe, on the other hand, reduces cholesterol absorption from the diet in the intestines. The combination of these two mechanisms helps lower total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides.



Common Dosages

  • Tablets: Commonly prescribed strength is 180 mg of bempedoic acid and 10 mg of ezetimibe.

Typical Dosing

  • Adults: The usual recommended dose is one tablet taken orally once daily, with or without food.


Typical Dosing

FDA Approved Indications

  • Adjunctive therapy to diet and exercise to reduce elevated LDL cholesterol in adults with primary hyperlipidemia or mixed dyslipidemia.


Who Shouldn't Take Nexlizet?

  • Known hypersensitivity to bempedoic acid, ezetimibe, or any component of the formulation.
  • Active liver disease or unexplained persistent elevations of liver transaminases.


Advice From The Pharmacist

  • Take Nexlizet exactly as prescribed, and do not exceed the recommended dose.
  • Monitor your cholesterol levels as directed by your healthcare provider to evaluate the effectiveness of the medication.
  • Maintain a healthy diet and lifestyle to support cholesterol management.

  • Myopathy Risk: Caution is advised in patients with a history of muscle disorders or those taking other cholesterol-lowering medications, as there may be an increased risk of muscle-related side effects.

  • Other Lipid-Lowering Agents: Inform your healthcare provider about all medications you are taking, especially other lipid-lowering therapies, to avoid potential interactions.
