What is a side effect common to bile acid sequestrates?

Injection site reactions
Increased HDL
Increased blood pressure
Constipation

The correct answer is: Constipation

A common side effect of bile acid sequestrates is constipation. While injection site reactions and increased blood pressure may occur as side effects of other medications, they are not commonly associated with bile acid sequestrates. Additionally, while increased HDL (good cholesterol) is a desired effect of bile acid sequestrates, it is not a common side effect. Therefore, D is the most accurate and appropriate answer for this question.
