Pravastatin Sodium(Cat No.:I008842)is a cholesterol-lowering medication from the statin class, used primarily to treat hypercholesterolemia and prevent cardiovascular disease. By inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, the enzyme responsible for cholesterol synthesis in the liver, Pravastatin effectively reduces low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels while raising high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels. Its unique water-solubility limits entry into muscle cells, which may reduce certain side effects commonly seen with other statins. Pravastatin Sodium is widely prescribed for managing cardiovascular risk, contributing to improved heart health and decreased incidence of stroke and heart attack.
