Fluvastatin Capsules

Fluvastatin is a medicine that treats high cholesterol. It supports controlling cholesterol levels by reducing the activity of the enzyme responsible for producing cholesterol. Fluvastatin works better with regular exercise and a healthy, low-cholesterol diet.

High cholesterol usually does not have any visible symptoms, the condition can induce other serious health issues. It may cause several life-changing circulatory problems, including; heart attacks and stroke. It is important to be aware of your cholesterol levels as well as manage your cholesterol levels, through regular exercise and a heart-smart diet. Fatty foods, alcohol, smoking, and a lack of physical activity can all lead to raised cholesterol levels, which is why it is important to make the right lifestyle choices. However, for some, high cholesterol can occur as a consequence of another medical condition, such as diabetes or history in the family.

Low-Level Cholesterol is healthy and helps to transports essential fats to cells via the bloodstream, which allows the cells to grow. This ‘good’ cholesterol is known as high-density lipoprotein (HDL). However, the required amount of good cholesterol is already produced naturally in the liver, so any dietary cholesterol only serves to form an excess. When excess amounts of cholesterol build up in the blood, these fats can stick together, forming blockages that can restrict blood flow. This ‘bad’ form of cholesterol is known as low-density lipoprotein (LDL).

Fluvastatin reduces the activity of HMG-CoA reductase, an enzyme found in the liver that produces cholesterol and therefore lowers the overall levels of cholesterol in the body. Having controlled, healthy levels of cholesterol reduces the risk of heart attack, stroke, and angina. It can also combat atherosclerosis, which is a hardening of the arteries.

Take one capsule throughout the day. Take it whole with water. Preferably, take the capsule each evening. It can be taken with food or without food.

To start, you can take one 20mg capsule per day. Your doctor may adjust this dosage depending on its effectiveness and on any side effects.

Fluvastatin should be taken as one capsule daily. Some people may take it twice a day based on their medical condition, response, age and any other medications they are taking.
