About

Lineator Tab is a potent medication belonging to the class of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, commonly known as statins, which are crucial for managing dyslipidemia. It functions by inhibiting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, a key enzyme in the liver responsible for cholesterol synthesis. This inhibition leads to a significant reduction in the production of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, often termed "bad" cholesterol, and triglycerides. Simultaneously, Lineator Tab can also modestly increase high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, or "good" cholesterol. By effectively improving the overall lipid profile, this medication plays a vital role in preventing the accumulation of atherosclerotic plaques within the arteries. Consequently, it substantially reduces the risk of major cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction and stroke, particularly in individuals diagnosed with hyperlipidemia or those identified as being at high cardiovascular risk.
