How it Works

Kolestran is known as a bile acid binding agent. Kolestran works by removing the bile acid from the body. The liver then produces more bile acids using cholesterol available in the body. Because the body uses the excessive cholesterol to make bile acids, the levels of cholesterol in the body is lowered.
