Lovastatin is a cholesterol lowering drug and competitive inhibitor of HMG-CoA reductase, a rate limiting enzyme in cholesterol synthesis. Blocks the production of mevalonate, a critical compound in the production of cholesterol and isoprenoids. It increases cellular resistance to anticancer agents such as doxorubicin and induces apoptosis in myeloma cells. It causes cell cycle arrest in G1 and G2/M phases.
