WHAT INEGY IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
INEGY contains the active substances ezetimibe and simvastatin. INEGY
is a medicine
used to lower levels of total cholesterol, “bad” cholesterol (LDL
cholesterol), and fatty
substances called triglycerides in the blood. In addition, INEGY
raises levels of "good"
cholesterol (HDL cholesterol).
INEGY works to reduce your cholesterol in two ways. The active
ingredient ezetimibe
reduces the cholesterol absorbed in your digestive tract. The active
ingredient
simvastatin belonging to the class of "statins" inhibits the
production of the cholesterol
your body makes by itself.
Cholesterol is one of several fatty substances found in the
bloodstream. Your total
cholesterol is made up mainly of LDL and HDL cholesterol.
LDL cholesterol is often called “bad” cholesterol because it can
build up in the walls of
your arteries forming plaque. Eventually this plaque build-up can lead
to a narrowing of
the arteries. This narrowing can slow or block blood flow to vital
organs such as the
heart and brain. This blocking of blood flow can result in a heart
attack or stroke.
