What are Simvastatin tablets?
Simvastatin tablets are used to treat high cholesterol, also known as hypercholesterolemia. They work by reducing the amount of cholesterol in the body, thereby reducing the risk of cholesterol blocking of the blood vessels. This in turn reduces the risk of heart disease. The term "Simvastatin tablets" concerns the general or active ingredient. These tablets are manufactured by various companies around the world and are launched under many different brands. The enzyme HMG-CoA reductase is responsible for the production of cholesterol in the body. Cholesterol at the right level is involved in building healthy cells. At normal levels, however, cholesterol can significantly increase the risk of heart disease.
When the cholesterol levels are high, there is a accumulation of the fat in blood vessels that can store along the walls of the blood vessels, making blood flow more difficult. This causes less oxygen -rich blood to reach the heart and can increase the risk of heart attacks. Simvastatin tablets can reduce the risk of blocking enzyme and inhibiting productiony cholesterol. This reduces cholesterol levels and therefore reduces the risk of forming blockages in blood vessels.
Simvastatin tablets should be used under the supervision of a qualified physician and are only available according to the regulation. The usual dose is 20 milligrams a day. Tablets should be taken in the evening because most cholesterol are produced at night.
