Effects - How it works in the body

Prevalite belongs to the group of an Antidiarrheal, postoperative colonic bile acids and cholestasis medication and generally used for relieves to lower high cholesterol levels in the blood (cholesterol clogging the blood vessels). Prevalite works by attaching to bile acids in the intestine and both are removed from the body as waste. As the body loses bile acids, it replaces them by converting cholesterol from the blood to bile acids. Sequestrants bind to bile acids in the intestine and prevent them from being reabsorbed into the blood. The liver then produces more bile to replace the bile that has been lost. Since the body needs cholesterol to make bile, the liver use up the cholesterol in the blood, reducing the amount of LDL cholesterol circulating in the blood.
