Hi Michol,

The only information I've been able to find regarding the medication Michol, leads me to believe that it contains Simvastatin as the active ingredient.

Simvastatin is a hypolipidemic drug used with exercise, diet, and weight-loss to control elevated cholesterol, or hypercholesterolemia. It is a member of the statin class of pharmaceuticals. The primary uses of simvastatin is for the treatment of dyslipidemia and the prevention of cardiovascular disease. It is recommended to be used only after other measures such as diet, exercise, and weight reduction have not improved cholesterol levels sufficiently. Simvastatin is a synthetic derivative of a fermentation product of Aspergillus terreus. The drug is marketed generically following patent expiry, and under the trade name Zocor.

Side effects (may include but are not limited to):

Common: abdominal pain, diarrhea, indigestion, and a general feeling of weakness.
Rare: joint pain, memory loss, and muscle cramps

You can learn more about this drug on the page for Simvastatin Details

Please post back if you have any more questions!
