Abstract: Tocopherol is used not only as an ethical drug but also as a supplement. In 2008, it was reported that alpha-tocopherol is partly transported via an intestinal cholesterol transporter, Niemann-Pick C1-Like 1 (NPC1L1). Ezetimibe, a selective inhibitor of NPC1L1, is administered for a long time to inhibit cholesterol absorption and there is a possibility that the absorption of alpha-tocopherol is also inhibited by ezetimibe. This study investigated the influence of ezetimibe on the absorption of alpha-tocopherol with single administration and long-term administration. An approach to avoid its undesirable consequence was also examined. alpha-Tocopherol (10 mg/kg) and ezetimibe (0.1 mg/kg) were administered to rats, and the plasma concentration profiles of alpha-tocopherol and tissue concentrations were investigated. The plasma concentration of alpha-tocopherol was decreased by the combination use of ezetimibe in the case of concurrent single administration. On the other hand, inhibition of the absorption of alpha-tocopherol was prevented by an administration interval of 4 h. In a group of rats administered for 2 months with a 4 h interval, not only the plasma concentration but also the liver concentration was increased compared with those in a group with concurrent combination intake of alpha-tocopherol and ezetimibe. The absorption of alpha-tocopherol was inhibited by ezetimibe. The inhibitory effect of ezetimibe can be prevented by an administration interval of 4 h, although ezetimibe is a medicine of enterohepatic circulation. Attention should be paid to the use of ezetimibe and components of NPC1L1 substrates such as alpha-tocopherol. Copyright (C) 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
