Yes, it does. Go to any compounding pharmacy and they will be happy to order you
pure cholestyramine powder. Be warned however / your insurance may not cover it
and it smells just like dead fish. It also is the equivalent of drinking sand when you
mix/drink it --- but it does not taste like fish or anything. I use this because I have IC
a bladder condition and cannot take artificial colorings which both forms of
Questran have. I don't care about the fishy smell or the texture. Life with bile salt D
is much worse than that! 11/16/2016
I don't think so. They all have sucrose and orange flavor.
