Tovast 40Mg 30Tab

Tovast is a medication used to treat high levels of cholesterol in the blood and is classified under a group of drugs known as statins. It works by reducing levels of bad cholesterol (LDL) and increasing levels of good cholesterol (HDL). It is primarily used for the prevention of cardiovascular diseases.

Tovast works by inhibiting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, which is a key enzyme in the cholesterol production process in the liver. By reducing cholesterol production, Tovast helps to decrease fat accumulation in the arteries, thereby reducing the risk of heart attacks and strokes. Additionally, Tovast shows benefits in improving vascular function and reducing inflammation associated with heart diseases.
