A synthetic HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor (statin) used to lower LDL cholesterol and reduce cardiovascular risk. It was voluntarily withdrawn from the worldwide market in 2001 due to an unacceptably high incidence of potentially fatal rhabdomyolysis, particularly when combined with gemfibrozil. It represents an important pharmacovigilance case study in post-marketing drug safety.
