Welcome to the website for ZOCORŪ (simvastatin): Merck & Co., Inc
http://www.zocor.com/

******************************************************

Simvastatin and impotence, BMJ.com:"The benefits of lowering raised cholesterol concentrations are established in patients with documented coronary artery disease and those at high risk.1 2 Inhibitors of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (statins) are highly effective agents with few reported adverse effects. However, as their use becomes more common, adverse effects may be increasingly recognised. Impotence, rarely volunteered or asked about, is an important adverse effect of drugs and not currently associated with simvastatin."
http://bmj.com/cgi/content/full/315/7099/31/a

******************************************************

ZocorŪ (Simvastatin):"Therapy with lipid-altering agents should be considered in those individuals at increased risk for atherosclerosis-related clinical events as a function of cholesterol level, the presence of coronary heart disease, or other risk factors. Lipid-altering agents should be used in addition to a diet restricted in saturated fat and cholesterol when the response to diet and other nonpharmacological measures alone has been inadequate (see NCEP Guidelines, below)."
http://www.druginfonet.com/index.php?pageID=pi_mfr/ppi/merck/zocor/zocor.htm

******************************************************

Zocor Raises Insulin Levels -- Diet is Better, Dr. Joseph Mercola:"Despite the well-documented benefits of cholesterol-lowering drugs called statins, a new study from Finland shows that diet can still make a difference in patients taking these drugs when it comes to keeping cholesterol under control. In a study of men with high cholesterol, a combination of a Mediterranean-style diet and the drug Zocor was more effective at lowering cholesterol than either approach alone. The diet also counteracted some of the detrimental effects of the drug. Based on the findings, the study's authors say that the importance of a healthy diet needs to be emphasized to patients taking statins."
http://www.mercola.com/2002/feb/20/zocor.htm

******************************************************

Less Frequent Liver Function Testing Recommended For Cholesterol Drug, PSLGroup.com:"It is now recommended that liver function tests be performed with Zocor at the start of therapy and periodically (such as semi-annually) only for the first year of treatment or until one year after the last elevation in dose. Previously, liver function testing for patients on Zocor was recommended at the start of treatment, at six and twelve weeks, and semiannually for the duration of treatment."

Simvastatin, Indications, RXlist.com:"Therapy with lipid-altering agents should be considered in those individuals at increased risk for atherosclerosis-related clinical events as a function of cholesterol level, the presence of CHD, or other risk factors. Lipid-altering agents should be used in addition to a diet restricted in saturated fat and cholesterol when the response to diet and other nonpharmacological measures alone has been inadequate (see TABLE 2)."

Nurses' Station:"The idea for the Nurses' Station Catalog was conceived in 1989. After searching the marketplace in response to customer inquiries, it became obvious that there were no catalogs of this type serving the nursing profession. To be sure, there were several catalogs offering nurse's uniforms and a smattering of professional items. But there weren't any catalogs at the time offering a range of gifts, clothing, professional items, name badges, shoes and scrubs for nurses. It took two years of hard work to gather samples and put a together a catalog of the most unique and high-quality items for nurses."
