Description
Dispensed from a jurisdiction where this item is approved for sale. VYTORIN is a combination of two medications called ezetimibe and simvastatin. Together, these chemicals are used to treat high cholesterol. Ezetimibe works by reducing the amount of cholesterol that your body absorbs from your diet. Simvastatin works by blocking an enzyme that is necessary for your body to make cholesterol. This medicine may also be used to treat other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Directions
Follow the directions for using this medicine provided by your doctor. This medicine may be taken on an empty stomach or with food. Take this medicine in the evening unless otherwise directed by your doctor. IF YOU ARE ALSO TAKING A BILE ACID SEQUESTRANT (such as cholestyramine, colestipol, or colesevelam), take this medicine at least 2 hours before or at least 4 hours after the bile acid sequestrant. DO NOT DRINK LARGE AMOUNTS OF GRAPEFRUIT JUICE (greater than 1 quart daily) or eat large amounts of grapefruit while taking this medicine.

Most people with high cholesterol do not feel sick. Do not miss any doses. Taking this medicine at the same time each day will help you to remember.
