Zocor executes its function through competitively inhibiting HMG CoA reductase activity and thus lowering the levels of cellular cholesterol. Zocor is also found to be increasing LDL receptor expression, thereby causing increased uptake of plasma LDL and consequently decreases plasma LDL-cholesterol concentration.
