Pharmacology
Atorvastatin is a selective, competitive inhibitor of HMG-CoA reductase, the rate-limiting enzyme that converts HMG-CoA to mevalonate, a cholesterol precursor; it lowers plasma cholesterol and LDL levels by inhibiting hepatic cholesterol synthesis and increasing hepatic LDL receptor expression.
Insulin analog; regulates glucose metabolism by stimulating peripheral glucose uptake by skeletal muscle and fat and inhibiting hepatic glucose production, while also inhibiting lipolysis and proteolysis and enhancing protein synthesis.
