What is Colestyramine used for?

Additionally, it may be used to alleviate itching caused by bile acid malabsorption.

It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and administration instructions. Always inform your healthcare provider about any other medications you are taking to avoid potential interactions.
What does Colestyramine interact with?
