​Questran Lite is supplied as sachets and each sachet contains 4g of the active substance cholestyramine. Cholestyramine belongs to a group of medicines called bile acid binding resins. Questran Lite is used to lower your body’s level of cholesterol (a type of fat) which can cause heart disease. This medicine works in the digestive system and absorbs the cholesterol-containing bile acids, which then pass out through the body in the faeces. Questran Lite may also be used to help stop some types of diarrhoea or itching.
