About Bemperol Tablet

Bemperol Tablet is used together with lifestyle changes and certain cholesterol-lowering medicines to decrease bad cholesterol in patients with heart disease or familial heterozygous hypercholesterolemia (an inherited condition in which cholesterol cannot be removed from the body normally).

Bemperol Tablet contains Bempedoic acid, which works by blocking an enzyme (ATP citrate lyase) needed for the production of cholesterol. This helps block the production of cholesterol in the liver and increases the removal of LDL cholesterol. Thereby, it helps decrease bad cholesterol in the body.

In some cases, Bemperol Tablet may cause side effects such as anaemia, gout, and pain in the shoulders, arms or legs. Most of these side effects may not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.

Do not take Bemperol Tablet if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Bemperol Tablet is not recommended for children below 18 years, as the safety and effectiveness have not been established. Inform the doctor regarding your health condition and medicines you are taking to rule out any possible side effects/interactions.

Uses of Bemperol Tablet

Bemperol Tablet is used in the treatment of high cholesterol. The detailed uses of Bemperol Tablet are as follows:

  • Lowering LDL cholesterol: Bemperol Tablet is prescribed to reduce low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), commonly known as bad cholesterol. It works by inhibiting the enzyme ATP citrate lyase, which plays a key role in cholesterol production in the liver.
  • Treatment of primary hyperlipidemia: Bemperol Tablet is used in adults with primary hyperlipidemia, including heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia, a genetic condition that causes very high cholesterol levels.
  • Cardiovascular risk reduction: In patients with established heart disease or those at high risk, Bemperol Tablet may be used alongside statins or as an alternative when statins are not tolerated, to help reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, or coronary procedures.
