Cholestyramine aspartame brand name?

What brand name is cholestyramine sold under?

Cholestyramine is marketed under the brand name Questran (also seen as Questran Light). It’s an oral bile-acid sequestrant used to lower LDL cholesterol and to treat certain bile-acid–related conditions.

Does cholestyramine come in a formulation that contains aspartame?

If you’re asking because you want to avoid or limit aspartame, the key detail is that some cholestyramine powder mixes may be offered in sweetened forms where the sweetener could include aspartame, but the exact sweetener depends on the specific product strength and packaging/label.

To confirm whether a particular cholestyramine version contains aspartame, check the “Inactive ingredients” section on the package insert or the product label for that exact brand (for example, Questran vs. Questran Light).
