Possible Interaction: Simvastatin and Adrenocorticotropic Hormone

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Adrenocorticotrophic hormone exerts marked lipid‐lowering effects in simvastatin‐treated patients.
Journal of internal medicine  •  2001  |  View Paper
Basal levels of ACTH were higher after simvastatin (2.9 ± 1.9 pmol/1 vs 4.1 ± 2.9 pmol/l; P < 0.05) whereas basal levels of steroid hormones were not significantly changed.
Clinical endocrinology  •  1989  |  View Paper
Importantly, simvastatin treatment further diminished the adrenal glucocorticoid response to adrenocorticotropic hormone exposure (two-way ANOVA p < 0.05 for treatment).
