Coleston
For excess cholesterol in the blood and associated coldness and numbness in the hands and feet
For whom and when
Product overview
Coleston is a Class 3 OTC Drug that improves high serum cholesterol and alleviates peripheral circulatory disorders associated with high serum cholesterol (coldness and numbness in the hands and feet). Its three active ingredients—soybean oil unsaponifiables (soy sterol) derived from soybeans, pantethine involved in lipid metabolism, and natural vitamin E (d-α-tocopherol acetate)—approach excess cholesterol in the blood through different mechanisms. Because high cholesterol often causes no noticeable symptoms, regular measurement of cholesterol levels at a medical institution is recommended while taking this medicine.
Product features
