Zocor Heart Pro Tablets 10Mg

Zocor Heart-Pro is a medicine which is used to reduce the risk of a first heart attack in people who have a moderate risk of coronary heart disease (heart disease caused by a build up of plaques in the coronary arteries). Moderate risk means that your chances of having a heart attack in the next 10 years are at least 1 in 10 (10%). The tablets contain simvastatin, which belongs to a group of medicines known as statins. Statins significantly reduce the amount of cholesterol in your blood.You will need to take these tablets regularly for a long period of time to get the maximum benefit from them. Section 7 includes information on what you can do to help reduce your risk of heart attack. Who is at moderate risk of coronary heart disease?You are likely to be at moderate risk if you are a man aged 55 or over.You are also likely to be at moderate risk if you are a man aged between 45 and 54 or a woman aged 55 or over and you answer yes to one or more of the questions below:Do you have a parent, brother or sister who suffered a heart attack younger than 55 for men or 65 for women?Do you smoke or have you smoked within the last 5 years?Are you overweight? This means you have a body mass index (BMI) over 25kg/m² (this is your weight in kilos divided by your height in metres squared)Are you of South Asian origin (from the Indian subcontinent that includes Bangladesh, India, Pakistan or Sri Lanka)?In addition, if you take no physical exercise other than normal daily activities, your risk of heart attack is further increased.How does the medicine work?Zocor Heart-Pro works by reducing the level of LDL (bad) cholesterol and fatty substances called triglycerides in your blood and raises HDL (good) cholesterol. LDL (bad) cholesterol clogs your coronary arteries.HDL (good) cholesterol helps to protect against heart disease. How LDL (bad) Cholesterol can cause a heart attack?If too much cholesterol in your blood builds up in the walls of the coronary arteries, then plaques will form. This leads to narrowing of the coronary arteries, just like hard water furs up a water pipe. Heart attacks can then happen when a blood clot forms in a narrowed coronary artery. How this medicine can help reduce the likelihood of a heart attack? By taking these tablets you can significantly reduce LDL (bad) cholesterol levels and help reduce the build up of artery-narrowing plaques.
