@Simvastatin40mg
Simvastatin is a commonly prescribed medication belonging to the statin class, primarily used to manage elevated levels of cholesterol in the blood. Administered in a dosage of 40 mg, Simvastatin functions by inhibiting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, a key player in the synthesis of cholesterol in the liver. By impeding this enzyme's activity, Simvastatin effectively reduces the production of cholesterol, leading to a decrease in low-density lipoprotein (LDL) or "bad" cholesterol levels. Additionally, it has been shown to modestly elevate high-density lipoprotein (HDL) or "good" cholesterol levels.
