This medication belongs to a group of drugs called adenosine triphosphate-citrate lyase (ACL) inhibitors and is considered to be a lipid-lowering agent. Bempedoic acid in particular is known to be a nonstatin that interrupts the body’s cholesterol-making process by reducing the amount of cholesterol made by your liver and increasing the breakdown of bad cholesterol.
