LORSTAT is used to treat
lowers high cholesterol levels
to reduce the risk of having a heart attack or stroke in people who have high blood
pressure and coronary heart disease (CHD) or who are at risk of CHD. Examples of risk
factors for CHD include diabetes, a history of stroke, or small blood vessel disease.
What is cholesterol
Everyone has cholesterol in their blood. It is a type of blood fat needed by the body
for many things, such as building cell walls, making bile acids (which help to digest
food) and some hormones. However, too much cholesterol can be a problem.
Cholesterol is present in many foods and is also made in your body by the liver. If
your body makes too much cholesterol or you have too much cholesterol in your diet,
then your cholesterol level becomes too high.
High cholesterol is more likely to occur with certain diseases or if you have a family
history of high cholesterol.
There are different types of cholesterol. LDL, or low-density lipoprotein, is the
'bad' cholesterol that can block your blood vessels. HDL, or high density lipoprotein
cholesterol is the 'good' cholesterol that is thought to remove the 'bad' cholesterol
from the blood vessels.
When you have high levels of 'bad' cholesterol in your blood, it may 'stick' to the
inside of your blood vessels instead of being carried to the parts of the body where
it is needed. Over time, this can form hard areas (called plaques) on the walls of
your blood vessels, making it more difficult for the blood to flow. Sometimes, the
plaque can detach from the vessel wall and float in the bloodstream; it can then reach
a smaller vessel and completely block it. This blocking of your blood vessels can
lead to several types of blood vessel disease, heart attack, angina and stroke.
There is another type of fat called triglyceride, which is a source of energy. However,
high levels of be associated with low level of 'good' cholesterol and may increase
your risk of heart disease.
In some patients, LORSTAT is used to treat high cholesterol and high triglycerides
together.
In most people, there are no symptoms of abnormal cholesterol or triglyceride levels.
Your doctor can measure your levels with a simple blood test.
How LORSTAT works
LORSTAT belongs to a group of medicines known as HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors. It
works by reducing the amount of cholesterol made by the liver. LORSTAT 'bad' cholesterol
and can raise the 'good' cholesterol. LORSTAT also helps to protect you from a heart
attack or stroke.

such as exercise and weight control.
