Zocor helps save lives among people who suffer from high
cholesterol and heart disease. Heart disease is the leading
cause of death for people in the United States. One type of
heart disease is called coronary heart disease (CHD), which
is caused by atherosclerosis. CHD results in narrowing of
coronary arteries (through which oxygen-rich blood and nutrients
are supplied to the heart). In time, the inadequate supply
of oxygen-rich blood and nutrients damages the heart muscle
and can lead to chest pain and heart attack-and possibly to
death. by reducing the risk of heart attack.
Zocor (Simvastatin) is used along with an overall diet plan
in order to reduce blood cholesterol in patients with high
blood cholesterol levels. Zocor can significantly reduce the
amount of LDL ("bad") cholesterol in the blood while
simultaneously raising the levels of HDL-C ("good")
cholesterol.
Zocor may also be prescribed for other reasons: it has been
proven to reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke in high-risk
patients such as diabetics or heart patients, regardless of
their blood cholesterol levels.
