I was prescribed Prevalite 4gm Powder to help lower my high cholesterol. While I understand it works by binding to bile acids and reducing cholesterol in the blood, I'm worried about the potential side effects. The medication guide lists severe allergic reactions, severe constipation, and unexplained bruising or bleeding as urgent side effects. Has anyone else experienced these or other serious side effects? How did you handle them? Any tips from those who have been on this medication long-term would be greatly appreciated. I've also heard it can help with itching from liver conditions, has anyone used it for that purpose?
