High Cholesterol Medications

High cholesterol refers to elevated levels of lipids in the bloodstream, which can lead to heart disease and stroke. Medications are often prescribed to help lower cholesterol levels, improve heart health, and reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications.

Generic Medications for High Cholesterol

Common generic medications for high cholesterol include atorvastatin, simvastatin, rosuvastatin, pravastatin, and lovastatin. These statins work by inhibiting cholesterol production in the liver, helping to lower overall cholesterol levels in the body.
