Statins inhibit the action of the enzyme 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMG-CoA), which is important in the synthesis of cholesterol and essential isoprenoid intermediates, thereby lowering circulating low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL), a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD).
