WHAT IS IN THIS LEAFLET 
This leaflet answers some common questions about VYTORIN.  It
does not contain all the 
available information.  It does not take the place of talking to
your doctor or pharmacist. 

All medicines have risks and benefits.  Your doctor has weighed
the risks of you taking 
VYTORIN against the benefits they expect it will have
for you. 

If you have
any concerns about taking this medicine, ask your doctor or pharmacist. 

Keep this leaflet with the medicine.  You may need to read
it again. 

WHAT VYTORIN IS USED FOR 
VYTORIN helps to lower high LDL
(bad) cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and raises 
levels of HDL (good) cholesterol.  VYTORIN is for adults and
adolescents (10 to 17 years 
of age) who
cannot control their cholesterol levels by diet alone.  You
should stay on a 
cholesterol-lowering diet while taking this medicine. 

Everyone has cholesterol and triglycerides in
their blood.  They are types of blood fat 
needed by the body for many things. 
CHOLESTEROL 
Some of the reasons cholesterol is needed by the
body include; building cell walls making 
bile acids (which help to digest food) and certain hormones. 
However, too much 
cholesterol can be a problem. 

Your body makes cholesterol, but it also comes from food. 

Normally the body balances the cholesterol it makes with the
cholesterol it gets from food.  
This means if more cholesterol comes from food, less is made
by the body.  However, if 
you eat a diet high in fat, your body may not keep
this balance and your cholesterol levels 
rise. 

High cholesterol is more likely to occur with certain
diseases or if you have a family history
