Cholesterol absorption inhibitors are a class of compounds that prevent the uptake of cholesterol from the small intestine into the circulatory system. Most of these molecules are monobactams but show no antibiotic activity. An example is ezetimibe (SCH 58235)[1][2][3][4] Another example is Sch-48461.[5] The "Sch" is for Schering-Plough, where these compounds were developed.
Phytosterols are also cholesterol absorption inhibitors.
Viscous soluble fiber is available in foods or fiber supplements and can reduce LDL-C. It is hypothesized that this effect is by binding to bile acids and preventing their resorption.[6] Psyllium reduces LDL-C by 0.33 mmol/l (12.5 mg/dl) and also reduces apolipoprotein B, leading one systematic review to conclude that it "effectively improves conventional and alternative lipids markers, potentially delaying the process of atherosclerosis-associated CVD risk in those with or without hypercholesterolemia".[7] Another soluble fiber, konjac glucomannan, reduces LDL by 10 percent.[8]
