AURO-SIMVASTATIN 40mg

Auro-Simvastatin 40mg is a medication used to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease. Simvastatin, the active ingredient, is a type of statin that works by inhibiting an enzyme in the liver responsible for producing cholesterol. By decreasing the production of cholesterol, it helps to lower levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and triglycerides while increasing high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol.

This medication is typically prescribed to individuals with high cholesterol or those at risk of cardiovascular events, such as heart attacks or strokes. The 10mg dose is often used as a starting point, with adjustments made based on the patient’s response and cholesterol levels. It is usually taken once daily in the evening, as cholesterol production in the liver is higher at night. Regular monitoring of cholesterol levels and liver function may be necessary during treatment.
