==Overdosage==
Overdosage of cholestyramine resin has been reported in a patient taking 150% of the maximum recommended daily dosage for a period of several weeks. No ill effects were reported. Should an overdosage occur, the chief potential harm would be obstruction of the gastrointestinal tract. The location of such potential obstruction, the degree of obstruction, and the presence or absence of normal gut motility would determine treatment.<ref name="dailymed.nlm.nih.gov">{{Cite web  | last =  | first =  | title = PREVALITE (CHOLESTYRAMINE) POWDER, FOR SUSPENSION [UPSHER-SMITH LABORATORIES INC.] | url = http://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/lookup.cfm?setid=dd434ef8-8af3-434c-a0a0-9a0b18459ba0 | publisher =  | date =  | accessdate = 10 February 2014 }}</ref>
