This medication is usually prescribed in 10mg doses to be taken once daily. If combining Zetia with other medications, follow your doctor’s instructions regarding your dosing schedule. Most statin cholesterol medications may be taken at the same time as your Zetia pill. Bile acid sequestrants should not be taken at the same time. Zetia should be taken while following a diet and exercise plan for best results.

What if I forget to take a dose of Zetia?
