Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
Antihyperlipidemic. | [Uses]
Colestipol Hydrochloride was useful for studying pharmacokinetics with Teriflunomide (A771726). | [Definition]
ChEBI: The hydrochloride of colestipol, a highly cross-linked, high molecular weight copolymer of diethylenetriamine and epichlorohydrin (hydrochloride), with approximately 1 out of 5 amine nitrogens protonated. It is used for binding bile acids in the intestine,
inhibiting their reabsorption. | [Brand name]
Colestid (Pharmacia & Upjohn). | [General Description]
Colestipol (Colestid) is ahigh–molecular-weight, insoluble, granular copolymer oftetraethylenepentamine and epichlorohydrin. It functions asan anion-exchange, resin-sequestering agent in a manner similarto that of cholestyramine resin. Colestipol hydrochloridereduces cholesterol levels without affecting triglycerides andseems to be especially effective in the treatment of type IIhyperlipoproteinemias. | [Drug interactions]
Potentially hazardous interactions with other drugs
Anticoagulants: may enhance or reduce effects of
coumarins and phenindione.
Ciclosporin: no reports of an interaction; however,
ciclosporin levels should be carefully monitored if
colestipol and ciclosporin are prescribed concurrently,
as colestipol may interfere with ciclosporin
absorption. | [Metabolism]
Not applicable as colestipol is not systemically absorbed. |
