Is Generic Version Of Zetia Available Yet?

Do you know anything about generic Zeita you can get in Canada? Chemical name Ezeitimibe, product name Ezedoc 10 mg. Since I went on Medicare I found Zeita to be outrageous expensive. Thinking of getting in in Canada. Still expensive but the generic is very reasonable .

Hi,

While zetia lowers the cholesterol brought in from the gut, it is controversial whether it is more effective than using white-out on the cholesterol numbers.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
