Generic Zocor 5mg Simvastatin is used with diet changes (restriction of cholesterol and fat intake) to reduce the amount
of cholesterol and certain fatty substances in your blood. Accumulation of cholesterol and fats along the walls of your
arteries (a process known as atherosclerosis) decreases blood flow and, therefore, the oxygen supply to your heart, brain,
and other parts of your body. Lowering your blood level of cholesterol and fats may help to prevent heart disease, angina
(chest pain), strokes, and heart attacks.
Generic Zocor 5mg medication is sometimes prescribed for other uses; ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.
