Can I take Colecalciferol; cholecalciferol and Ezetimibe together?

Why this happens

Ezetimibe works by reducing the absorption of cholesterol in the small intestine. While it affects how the body handles certain fats, studies have shown it does not significantly interfere with the absorption or effectiveness of fat-soluble vitamins like colecalciferol. Similarly, colecalciferol does not change how ezetimibe is processed or cleared by the body.

What you should do

You can continue to take both medications as prescribed by your doctor. No special precautions or timing adjustments are necessary for this specific combination.
