Oh, dude, they're like distant cousins at best. Cholestyramine and Metamucil both help with digestion, but they work in totally different ways. Cholestyramine is a bile acid sequestrant, while Metamucil is a fiber supplement. So, they might both be in the digestive family tree, but they're definitely not twins.

No, it is not. Metamucil is ground-up Psyllium fiber, whereas cholestyramine is an ion-exchange resin containing a polymer.
