Simvastatin as an Adjunct to Standard Therapy for Variceal Bleeding in Cirrhosis
Introduction Variceal bleeding remains one of the most serious and life-threatening complications of liver cirrhosis, often associated with high rates of rebleeding and mortality despite standard therapy. Current clinical practice relies on non-selective beta blockers and endoscopic variceal ligation (EVL), yet outcomes remain suboptimal for many patients. Recent clinical research has explored whether adding statinsknown…
