Indications and usage     

Simvastatin is a drug from the group of statins used to reduce concentrations of total cholesterol, the so-called bad cholesterol (LDL) and fatty substances called triglycerides circulating in the blood.

In addition, this drug raises levels of "good" cholesterol (HDL-cholesterol).

While taking this medication should follow a proper diet to lower cholesterol.

Simvastatin is used along with a proper diet if you have:

- High blood cholesterol levels (primary hypercholesterolemia) or high blood levels of fatty substances (mixed hyperlipidemia).
- A hereditary illness (homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia), which increases the level of blood cholesterol. You may also receive other treatments.
- Coronary heart disease or you have a high risk of coronary heart disease (because you have diabetes, history of stroke or other blood vessel disease).

Simvastatin may prolong your life by reducing the risk of heart disease problems, regardless of the amount of cholesterol in your blood.

In most individuals, there are no immediate symptoms of high cholesterol, but can be detected with a simple test. Visit your doctor regularly and control your cholesterol.

Medizzine recommends consulting your doctor if you are unsure (or you do not know) why you have been given simvastatin.
