Medicinal Benefits

Simlo EZ 10 mg Tablet contains Ezetimibe and Simvastatin, used to lower the levels of bad cholesterol and triglycerides (type of fat) and increase good cholesterol levels. This reduces the risk of heart attack and stroke in future. Ezetimibe works by reducing the cholesterol absorbed in the digestive tract. Simvastatin works by inhibiting the production of cholesterol your body makes by itself. Also, it reduces the risk of stroke or heart attack by reducing the excess cholesterol deposition in the major blood vessels of the brain and heart. Simlo EZ 10 mg Tablet is used for patients whose cholesterol levels are not controlled by diet and exercise alone.
