Advicor? Advacore is a common misspelling of Advicor.
Advicor® (niacin extended-release/lovastatin) is a combination medicine approved for the treatment of high cholesterol and high triglycerides. Containing niacin and lovastatin, the drug works by controlling the rate at which the body produces cholesterol and decreasing the release of triglycerides into the blood. Regular use can result in a decrease of total cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and triglycerides, and an increase of HDL cholesterol. Potential side effects may include flushing, infection, or general feeling of weakness.
