What is Lovastatin?
Active Ingredients: Lovastatin
Lovastatin Tablets are used to lower cholesterol and lipids in the blood. It is combined with dietary changes to treat hypercholesterolemia and mixed dyslipidemia. For patients with heart disease or diabetes, lowering low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and triglycerides helps reduce the risk of stroke and heart attack.
Lovastatin is classified as a statin (HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor). Statins work by blocking the enzyme that is essential for cholesterol production in the body.
