Guest guest Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 Be careful with this medication. Check your triglicerides BEFORE you take it. There are strict warnings about using this medication on people with high triglicerides. Also, be careful pointing it out to the doctor. My pharmacy would not fill the prescription and when I went back to the doctor with the warning I was called all types of abusive names. > From: who <jeaninem660@...> > Subject: [] welchol? > > Date: Tuesday, September 23, 2008, 1:59 PM > does it also have fructose?

Guest guest Posted September 24, 2008 Report Share Posted September 24, 2008 No, this is not the sam warning. However CSM can raise your triglicerides. Cholestyramine increases VLDL production and therefore usually increases triglycerides > From: salzberglver3 <salzberglver3@...> > Subject: [] Re: welchol? > > Date: Wednesday, September 24, 2008, 12:35 PM > > > > Be careful with this medication.
