Definition of statin : any of a group of drugs (such as lovastatin and simvastatin) that inhibit the synthesis of cholesterol and promote the production of LDL-binding receptors in the liver resulting in a usually marked decrease in the level of LDL and a modest increase in the level of HDL circulating in blood plasma.
Statins include atorvastatin (Lipitor), fluvastatin (Lescol XL), lovastatin (Altoprev), pitavastatin (Livalo), pravastatin (Pravachol), rosuvastatin (Crestor, Ezallor) and simvastatin (Zocor, FloLipid). Having too much cholesterol in your blood increases your risk of heart attacks and strokes.
Studies show that about 5 percent to 10 percent of people are unable to tolerate statins, largely because of muscle aches and related side effects, including potential muscle damage.Jun 1, 2018
If you begin to show symptoms of muscle myopathy after starting statin therapy, talk to your doctor or physician as soon as possible. A blood test is usually ordered to measure creatine kinase levels and rule out rhabdomyolysis. If rhabdomyolysis is the culprit, statin treatment will be stopped immediately.
Doctors often prescribe a fibrate for patients who can't take a statin. Like the statins, fibrates reduce the body's cholesterol production, but they are less effective in lowering LDL cholesterol levels. In other areas, though, fibrates actually have the edge.Mar 9, 2014
Statins as an antiplatelet drug. Statins act by (1) inhibiting NADPH oxidase–mediated isoprostane formation, (2) modulating phospholipase A2 (PLA2)–mediated thromboxane A2 (TXA2) formation, and (3) upregulating endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS).Jan 15, 2013
