Question : When is the best time to take Zetia, in the morning when I wake up, or at night when I go to bed? Do I take it before a meal or after?
Brief Answer:
doesn't matter that much...
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Zetia is pretty convenient because you can take it with or without food and the timing is not very important. If you take a statin too, then it would be a good idea to take them together at night. The statins have to be taken at night because they're more effective at that time. Zetia timing won't affect its efficacy.
I hope you find my comments helpful!
You can contact me again, if you'd like any clarification or further information.
Kind Regards!
