Lovastatin
A statin that lowers cholesterol by blocking the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, discovered in the 1970s in the fungus Aspergillus terreus; in 1987 it became the first statin approved by the US FDA. This family brings together the active ingredient, pharmacopoeial impurities, labelled standards and other impurities.
Did you know?The very same molecule, also called monacolin K, occurs naturally in red yeast rice and, in small amounts, in oyster mushrooms and Pu-erh tea.
