Drug Function and Efficacy

It can combine with cholesterol to form esters, and may promote its degradation into bile acid for excretion, which has the effect of lowering blood cholesterol, reducing the content of triglycerides, low-density lipoproteins and very low-density lipoproteins, and increasing the content of high-density lipoproteins. It changes the distribution of cholesterol in the body, reduces the deposition of lipids in the blood vessel wall, and can change the composition and structure of lipoproteins, increase the fluidity of cell membranes and lipoproteins, and improve or protect the function of blood vessel walls.
