other conditions as determined by your doctor. |
LIPITOR is an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor
(also known as a "statin") used in combination with a
low-cholesterol and low-fat diet to lower cholesterol and
triglyceride levels and to raise good cholesterol (HDL)
levels in our blood. It may also be used in certain
adolescent patients, age 10 to 17 years, who have a
genetically caused cholesterol problem.
Lipitor can be used to control high cholesterol. It may also
be used to reduce the risk of heart attack, blood vessel
blockage, or chest pain. |
| PRAVASTATIN blocks the body's ability to
make cholesterol. Pravastatin can help lower blood
cholesterol for patients who are at risk of getting heart
disease or a stroke. It is only for patients whose
cholesterol level is not controlled by diet. |
VYTORIN is a combination of two medicines
used to treat high cholesterol. Zetia (active ingredient
Ezetimibe) works by reducing the amount of cholesterol that
your body absorbs from your diet. Zocor (active ingredient
Simvastatin) is an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor or "statin".
Vytorin works by blocking an enzyme that is necessary for
your body to make cholesterol. Vytorin is used in
combination with a low-cholesterol and low-fat diet. Keeping
your cholesterol level under control may reduce your risk of
heart problems and stroke. Vytorin is not a cure for high
cholesterol, but may help to control it.
VYTORIN reduces the amount of cholesterol (a type of fat)
absorbed by the body and also simultaneously blocks the
production of cholesterol in the body.
It is used to reduce the total amounts of cholesterol, LDL
(bad) cholesterol, triglycerides (another type of fat), and
apolipoprotein B (a protein needed to make cholesterol) in
your blood.
It is also used to increase the level of HDL (good)
cholesterol in your blood. These actions may reduce the risk
of hardening of the arteries, which can lead to heart
attacks, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease. |
| 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. |
| Atorvastatin is an HMG CoA reductase
inhibitor. Atorvastatin blocks the production of cholesterol
(a type of fat) in the body. Atorvastatin is used to reduce
the amounts of LDL (bad) cholesterol, total cholesterol,
triglycerides (another type of fat), and apolipoprotein B (a
protein needed to make cholesterol) in your blood. |
| The exact way that Lopid, Generic Lopid,
Gemfibrozil works to reduce cholesterol and triglycerides
(types of fat) in the blood is not known. High levels of fat
in the blood are associated with an increased chance of
heart disease, strokes, and other illnesses. Gemfibrozil is
used to lower high levels of cholesterol and triglycerides
in the blood. |
| Simvastatin is an HMG CoA reductase
inhibitor. Simvastatin blocks the production of cholesterol
(a type of fat) in the body. |
ATOREC ( Atorvastatin , Generic Lipitor
).
Uses: The uses of ATOREC ( Atorvastatin , Generic
Lipitor ) include:
Atorvastatin is used to lower cholesterol and fats in the blood
to help prevent heart attacks and strokes.
ATORVA (Atorvastatin, Generic Lipitor).
Uses: The uses of ATORVA ( Atorvastatin, Generic Lipitor
) include:
Atorvastatin is indicated, in conjunction with dietary
restriction, in the management of Hyperlipidemia.
Generic Atorvastatin belongs to the group of
medicines called 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA)
reductase inhibitors. It works by blocking an enzyme that is
needed by the body to make cholesterol, thereby reducing the
amount of cholesterol in the blood.
The uses of FENOLIP ( Fenofibrate , Generic Tricor )
include:
TriCor, in addition to appropriate diet, is used to
treat adults with high cholesterol, with or without elevated
triglycerides (Fredrickson types IIa and IIb). TriCor reduces
elevated LDL-C ("bad" cholesterol), total cholesterol,
triglycerides and apolipoprotein B, and increases HDL-C ("good"
cholesterol).
Lipitor (Atorvastatin calcium): Doctors
prescribe Lipitor to lower the patient's high cholesterol. For
better results with Lipitor, your doctor may prescribe it along
with a special diet, if your blood cholesterol or triglyceride
level is high enough to put you in danger of suffering heart
disease.
Generic Lopid (GEMFIBROZIL): Doctors
prescribe Lopid for the treatment of people who have very high
levels of serum triglycerides, people that are at risk of
developing pancreatitis and who do not respond adequately to a
strict diet. Lopid can also be used to reduce the risk of
coronary heart disease in people who have failed to respond to
weight loss, diet, exercise, and other triglyceride- or
cholesterol-lowering drugs.
Mevacor (LOVASTATIN): Doctors prescribe
Mevacor to lower cholesterol levels in people who have primary
hypercholesterolemia, along with a diet to obtain better
benefits. High cholesterol levels boosts the buildup of
artery-clogging plaque, which is especially dangerous when it
collects in the vessels serving the muscles of the heart. In
addition, Mevacor is used to prevent coronary heart disease, or
to slow its advance if the arteries are already clogging up.
Pravachol (PRAVASTATIN) is an HMG-CoA reductase
inhibitor (also known as a "statin") used to lower cholesterol
and triglyceride levels in your blood.
Startstat (Simvastatin, Generic Zocor)
Uses: The uses of STARTSTAT ( Simvastatin , Generic Zocor )
include:
Startstat (Generic Zocor) helps to lower high cholesterol and
triglyceride levels. Startstat (Generic Zocor) is used in people
who have coronary heart disease (CHD) or who are at high risk of
CHD (for example, if they have diabetes, a history of stroke, or
other blood vessel disease).
Tricor (Fenofibrate): Doctors prescribe
Tricor to fight high levels of "bad" LDL cholesterol, total
cholesterol, and triglycerides. In addition, Tricor serves to
increase levels of "good" HDL cholesterol. Tricor functions by
promoting the dissolution and elimination of fat particles in the
blood.
Zocor (SIMCARD) is an hmg-coa reductase
inhibitor or "statin" used to lower bad cholesterol (LDL) and
triglyceride levels in your blood or to raise good cholesterol
(HDL) levels in adults. This medicine is used in combination with
a low-cholesterol and low-fat diet. Simvastatin may also be used
in certain adolescent patients, age 10 to 17 years, who have a
genetically caused cholesterol problem. This medicine works by
blocking an enzyme that is necessary for your body to make
cholesterol. When this enzyme is blocked, your body makes less
cholesterol. Keeping your cholesterol level under control may
reduce your risk of heart problems and stroke. This medicine is
not a cure for high cholesterol, but may help to control it.
