Researchers are still trying to fathom the massive health benefits that the

control group experienced from the Statin and heart disease study. The

" Statins " : Lovastatin, Mevastatin, Pravastatin, Simvastatin (HMG CoA

Reductase Inhibitors) (1992) has recently reviewed the worldwide

experience of the beneficial use of this interesting group of antifungal

antibiotics in the treatment of hyperlipidemia and atherosclerosis. La Ville

et al (1989), Oogushi (1991) and Zhu et al (1992) have documented the

ability of these antibiotics to prevent atherosclerosis in animals.

As you see Statins were first developed as an anti-fungal drugs

,consequently they have a powerful anti-fungal action Some very interesting

facts on the effect of statins “lovastatin increased the effect of three

azole antifungal drugs (ketoconazole, clotrimazole, and miconazole) from 6

to 32 fold when lovastatin was added to the culture media”
