Simvastatin generic?

Yes. Simvastatin is available in generic form. The original brand name was Zocor, but now there are many generic versions made by different manufacturers.

A few quick points:
- Strengths commonly available: 5 mg, 10 mg, 20 mg, 40 mg, and 80 mg.
- Generics are considered bioequivalent to the brand-name drug, so they should have the same effect and safety profile.
- Generics are typically much cheaper and are often covered by insurance; costs can vary by country, insurer, and dose.
- If you currently take Zocor, your pharmacist may automatically substitute a generic unless your doctor has asked otherwise. Your dose should stay the same.
- Keep in mind a few interactions with simvastatin, such as grapefruit juice in some cases, and report any unusual muscle pain or weakness.

If you share your country or your current dose, I can give more specific guidance on availability and typical costs, or help you prepare questions for your pharmacist.
