Cholestyramine - statin Action: reduces LDL binds with bile salt in intestines --> bile acids + cholesterols are eliminated in feces adverse effects: constipation, bloating, belching, esophageal irritation & obstruction Fibric Acid Derivatives - gemfibrozil use: reduces VLDL & triglycerides action: inhibits breakdown of stored fats, uptake of fatty acids, triglyceride production adverse effects: N/V, cholelithiasis, inc INR w/ warfarin, GI comp Nicotinic Acid - niacin use: reduces VL...

Cardio Brooks Exam 3 (Dyslipidemias) With 100% Correct Answers HDL - answerlipoprotein that removes excess cholesterol; takes back to liver for catabolism or gut for excretion LDL - answermajor transport lipoprotein; carries surface protein (apolipoprotein); cleared by uptake of LDL receptors VLDL - answerlipoprotein released by the liver; similar in structure to chylomicrons but carries endogenous cholesterol/triglycerides chylomicron - answerlarge, triglyceride rich lipoprotein; transp...
