Should Cholestyramine be taken with, before, or after meals? And if before or after meals -- how long before or after?
Thank you,

You will probably get 200 different opinions on this topic! I’ve been taking it for 4 years now. I take 8 packets a day, 4 about an hour after my first meal, and 4 in the pm about an hour after my last meal.
This works for me, and I’ve experimented with it over the years..

I would give the diet a chance before starting cholestyramine, if he's only been on the diet for 13 days.
