Simvastatin

Simvastatin is a medication used to lower cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood. It belongs to a class of drugs called statins, which work by inhibiting an enzyme in the liver that is responsible for producing cholesterol. Lowering cholesterol levels can reduce the risk of heart disease, stroke, and other cardiovascular conditions.
