Pravastatin Action Pathway
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0000089Drug actionPravastatin inhibits cholesterol synthesis via the mevalonate pathway by inhibiting 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase. HMG-CoA reductase is the enzyme responsible for the conversion of HMG-CoA to mevalonic acid, t...
