An idiopathic inner ear ailment called Meniere's disease (MD) is characterised by tinnitus, fluctuating sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) and spontaneous recurrent vertigo. Dietary changes, such as a low-salt diet and a daily intake reduction of alcohol and caffeine, are frequently used as the first line of treatment.

Answer:

(B). inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase.

Explanation:

Lovastatin is a drug, which is used to reduce risk for cardiovascular diseases and to reduce level of cholesterol in blood.

It works by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase) enzyme, required for the formation of mevalonate from HMG-CoA.

Mevalonate is building block for the biosynthesis of cholesterol. Hence, lovastatin inhibits cholesterol production by inhibiting synthesis of mevalonate.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).
