Simvotin 20 Tablet (Simvastatin 20mg)

Simvotin 20 Tablet 10’s belongs to the class of medicines known as statins or HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor. It helps in lowering bad cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein-LDL) and glyceride level. Thus, it reduces the risk of heart attack and stroke in the future. There are two types of cholesterol found in our body: good cholesterol (high-density lipoprotein) and bad cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein). Good cholesterol is good for our heart and helps in reducing the bad cholesterol from our body. On the other hand, excess of bad cholesterol (LDL) leads to the risk of heart diseases like heart attack and stroke. High cholesterol known as hyperlipidemia or dyslipidemia occurs when there is an excess of the unhealthy balance of cholesterol in the blood. When there is a high cholesterol level in the blood, your arteries get narrowed and clogged that finally contributes to heart diseases, like stroke and heart attack. Eating high-fat or high-cholesterol containing food/drinks and genetic factors are the primary causes of high cholesterol.
