摘要: Seven sustained/controlled-release dosage forms were designed for gastrointestinal delivery of lovastatin or simvastatin, two potent HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors the treatment hypercholesterolemia. The in vivo performance these formulations was evaluated dogs and healthy volunteers terms cholesterol lowering efficacy and/or systemic concentrations inhibitors. Results from present previous studies suggest that, through controlled release inhibitors, sustained lower plasma may result an equal better therapeutic efficacy.
