INTRODUCTION

Choltran Sachet is a health supplement used to lower your body’s level of cholesterol (a type of fat) which can cause heart disease. It may also help prevent some types of diarrhoea or itching. It contains cholestyramine as an active ingredient that helps lower the cholesterol levels.

Cholestyramine belongs to a group of medicines called bile acid binding resins that works in the digestive system and absorbs the cholesterol-containing bile acids, which then pass out through the body in the stools.

Take Choltran Sachet as advised by the doctor. Inform your doctor if you have bile duct being completely blocked, a family history of high cholesterol levels, or if you are pregnant or breast-feeding. Choltran Sachet should not be used for children below 6 years of age.
