Pharmacological effect Simvastatin

The hypolipidemic agent produced synthetically from the fermentation product Aspergillus terreus is an inactive lactone and undergoes hydrolysis in the body to form a hydroxy-acid derivative. The active metabolite inhibits 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoA reductase (GMG-CoA reductase), an enzyme that catalyzes the initial formation of mevalonate from GMG-CoA.
