Ezetimibe, a selective intestinal cholesterol absorption inhibitor used as a non-statin lipid-lowering agent, typically as add-on to statins: its LDL-lowering efficacy, safety, and effects on cardiovascular outcomes (e.g., IMPROVE-IT). Not for statin therapy or PCSK9 inhibitors except when directly compared.

Ezetimibe added to statin therapy further lowers LDL cholesterol
