Cholesterol is a nutrient that the human body needs, but when you get sick into the mouth, eating too much will increase the cholesterol level in the blood, which is called hyperlipidemia. Hyperlipidemia has several manifestations, such as elevated cholesterol, which is the most common; The increase of triglyceride is the main factor.

The drugs used in the above two categories are different. Statins are the main cholesterol-lowering drugs, and there are many kinds. Include atorvastatin, simvastatin, pravastatin, pitavastatin, rosuvastatin and atorvastatin.

Cholesterol-lowering drugs usually include statins, which can be synthesized artificially or extracted from plants. The effective components of rice extracted by monascus fermentation can lower cholesterol as statins. Statins are a large class of drugs, which contain a very important enzyme by inhibiting cholesterol synthesis. If this enzyme is inhibited, cholesterol cannot be synthesized, so cholesterol can be lowered.

After cholesterol is lowered, blood lipids are improved, because dyslipidemia brings atherosclerosis, which can be closely related to hypertension, coronary heart disease and diabetes, which is harmful to health and longevity, so lowering cholesterol is very important. After inhibiting synthesis, cholesterol decreased.

There is also a drug that inhibits cholesterol absorption. By inhibiting the absorption of cholesterol, the influence of cholesterol intake on the body can be reduced. For example, a drug commonly used in clinic, there is a special protein for inhibiting cholesterol absorption, which is commonly used in clinic and convenient to take.

Specific drugs must be used under the guidance of a doctor. For example, doctors should first test blood lipids, and doctors should assess whether there is a risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and to what extent, and set a goal of regulating blood lipids.

c

Because the drugs for lowering blood lipid are relatively strong and mild, which drugs are suitable for use and how long they will be used need to be reviewed regularly during the application process, and doctors and patients need to communicate and decide. Generally speaking, cholesterol-lowering drugs include inhibition of synthesis and inhibition of absorption, both of which are individualized, not one thousand people.
