The medicine is a selective inhibitor of components such as 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme a-reductase. They convert 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme and malonic acid, which prevents the formation and accumulation of sterols. The pills reduce the level of cholesterol and lipoproteins in the blood plasma

Product Description

---

The pills help to synthesize cholesterol in the liver and to create a large number of lipoprotein receptors with low density. Such actions lead to increased capture and catabolism of lipoproteins, which have a low density. The tablets make levels of total cholesterol and lipoproteins, which have light density and triglycerides lower. They contribute to the formation of a high cholesterol level.

The remedy is quickly absorbed after taking it. The highest concentration of its components in blood is reached after one to two hours. The higher the dose, the higher the degree of absorption. The pills connect with blood plasma proteins in approximately 98 %. They also form derivatives and beta-oxidation. The remedy is excreted from the organism with bile. The average period of excretion of the components lasts approximately fourteen hours.
