Vytorin is a combination of two cholesterol-lowering drugs, Zocor and Zetia. Zocor blocks an enzyme needed for cholesterol production and Zetia prevents the intestine from absorbing it. Vytorin and Zetia are manufactured by the pharmaceutical manufacturing giants Merck and Schering-Plough and are two of the top selling drugs in the world.

Last Resort for Cholesterol Treatment

Five million people take these heavily advertised drugs worldwide, including four million Americans. In March 2008, at one of the country’s largest cardiology conferences, a clinical study was released which results showed that the cholesterol-lowering drugs Vytorin and Zetia may not work at all, and in some cases actually made patients cholesterol problems worse. The study also included the recommendation that both drugs should be prescribed only as a last resort. An editorial published the same day in the New England Journal of Medicine included the same recommendation based on the fact that other cholesterol drugs are cheaper and show proven benefits.
