Statins inhibit the mevalonate metabolic pathway. Statins can reduce other intermediate metabolites of the mevalonate pathway metabolic pathway except inhibition of cholesterol synthesis by inhibiting the HMG-CoA reductase, such as farnesyl pyrophosphate ester and dragon bull Quiron geraniol pyrophosphate synthesis. HMG-COA = 3-hydroxy-3-methyl glutaryl coenzyme A.
