Description

Promoting Cardiovascular Wellness: PharmAlliance International Labs’ Simvastatin Tablets:

Welcome to PharmAlliance International Labs Private Limited, where we are dedicated to advancing cardiovascular health with our innovative pharmaceutical solutions. Our Simvastatin Tablets stand as a reliable and effective treatment option for managing dyslipidemia and mitigating the risk of cardiovascular events in high-risk patients.

Drug Classification:

Simvastatin is categorized as a statin, a class of medications renowned for their lipid-lowering properties. By inhibiting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, statins like Simvastatin effectively decrease cholesterol production in the liver while enhancing the clearance of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol from the bloodstream.

Formulations:

PharmAlliance International Labs offers Simvastatin Tablets in various strengths, including 20mg, 40mg, and 80mg formulations. These oral tablets are packaged meticulously in blister packs containing 20 tablets each, ensuring convenient and precise administration for patients.

Indications:

Our Simvastatin Tablets are indicated for the treatment of primary hyperlipidemia, characterized by elevated levels of cholesterol and triglycerides. Additionally, they are prescribed to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction, stroke, and coronary revascularization procedures in patients with established coronary heart disease, diabetes, or other risk factors.

Usage:

Patients should take Simvastatin Tablets orally, with or without food, as directed by a healthcare professional. Dosage regimens may vary based on individual lipid profiles, cardiovascular risk factors, and treatment responses. Regular monitoring of lipid levels and liver function tests is recommended to assess treatment efficacy and detect potential adverse effects.

Dosage:

Typically, the recommended starting dose of Simvastatin is 20-40 mg once daily in the evening. Dosage adjustments may be necessary based on lipid levels and treatment responses, with a maximum recommended dose of 80mg per day for certain patient populations. Dosage titration should be done carefully to achieve optimal lipid control while minimizing adverse effects.

Pharmacokinetics:

Following oral administration, Simvastatin is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and undergoes extensive liver metabolism to its active form, simvastatin acid. This active metabolite inhibits HMG-CoA reductase, thereby exerting its lipid-lowering effects.

Pharmacodynamics:

Simvastatin’s inhibition of cholesterol synthesis and promotion of LDL cholesterol clearance contribute to reductions in total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglyceride levels, while elevating high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol levels. These lipid-modifying effects help mitigate atherosclerotic plaque formation and reduce the risk of cardiovascular events in high-risk patients.

Side Effects:

While generally well-tolerated, Simvastatin therapy may lead to common side effects such as headache, myalgia, gastrointestinal disturbances, and fatigue. Rare but serious adverse effects including myopathy, rhabdomyolysis, and hepatotoxicity may occur and necessitate immediate medical attention.
