Mevacor (active ingredient: lovastatin) is a prescription medication indicated for the following:
Mevacor belongs to a class of drugs known as HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins), which work by inhibiting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, resulting in decreased cholesterol synthesis in the liver.
Mevacor is available in the form of tablets that should be taken orally as directed by your healthcare provider. Typically, it is taken once daily with your evening meal, although some patients may be directed to take it twice daily. If you take other drugs to lower your cholesterol, such as bile acid-binding resins like cholestyramine or colestipol, you should take Mevacor at least 1 hour before or 4 hours after taking these medications. These products can interfere with the absorption of Mevacor.
The recommended dosage of Mevacor is based on individual circumstances, such as cholesterol levels, medical history, response to treatment, age, and other medications being taken. However, the usual recommended dosages of Lovastatin for adults is typically 20 mg once a day, taken with the evening meal. The dosage may be increased by the doctor, if necessary, with a maximum recommended dose of 80 mg per day. However, the actual dosage may vary depending on the individual’s specific medical condition, age, and response to treatment.
Mevacor (Lovastatin) is available in the following forms and strength:
Mevacor can interact with certain medications, including some antibiotics and medications used to treat HIV. Inform your doctor of all medications you are taking before starting Mevacor.
Mevacor can be taken with or without food. However, taking Mevacor with certain foods, such as grapefruit or grapefruit juice, may increase the risk of side effects.
The effectiveness of Mevacor can vary from person to person. In general, it may take several weeks or months of taking Mevacor regularly to see a significant improvement in cholesterol levels.
Mevacor is considered safe for long-term use. However, regular monitoring of liver function is recommended to detect any potential liver problems.
