✅ Description:
Indications
Pitavastatin is used in adult patients with primary hyperlipidemia or mixed dyslipidemia as an adjuvant therapy to diet to lower total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), apolipoprotein B (Apo B), triglycerides (TG), and enhance HDL-C.
Pharmacology
Pitavastatin reduces plasma cholesterol and lipoprotein levels via blocking HMG-CoA reductase and cholesterol synthesis in the liver, as well as increasing the number of hepatic LDL receptors on the cell surface, resulting in improved LDL uptake and catabolism.
Dosage & Administration
The dose range for Pitavastatin is 1 to 4 mg orally once daily at any time of the day with or without food. The recommended starting dose is 2 mg and the maximum dose is 4 mg. After initiation or upon titration of Pitavastatin, lipid levels should be analyzed after 4 weeks and the dosage adjusted accordingly.
Dosage in Patients with Renal Impairment: Patients with moderate renal impairment and end–stage renal disease receiving hemodialysis should receive a starting dose of Pitavastatin 1 mg once daily and a maximum dose of Pitavastatin 2 mg once daily. Pitavastatin should not be used in patients with severe renal impairment.
Interaction
Pitavastatin and cyclosporine should never be taken together.
Pitavastatin exposure was considerably boosted by erythromycin. Pitavastatin 1 mg once daily should not be exceeded in persons taking erythromycin.
