Lowest price pravastatin (generic Pravachol) for high cholesterol.

Pravastatin is used to treat high levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood. Do not take pravastatin if you have active liver disease, are pregnant, nursing or have a known allergy to pravastatin.

Before taking pravastatin, tell your doctor if you are taking any other medication, vitamins, supplements, or herbal products, if you have a history of liver disease, or heart disease, or plan to become pregnant.

Pravastatin is a lipid-altering medication that works by reducing the production of cholesterol and reducing cholesterol build-up within your artery walls.

While pravastatin controls high cholesterol, it does not cure the condition. Pravastatin works best when taken as a supplement to a low-fat, low-cholesterol diet and in conjunction with diet and exercise.

While adverse reactions to pravastatin are rare, some patients who take the drug may experience mild side effects, including memory loss, forgetfulness, headache, heartburn, and confusion.

If your side effects become severe or persist, tell your doctor. If you experience any of these symptoms you should call your doctor immediately as these adverse effects can be serious:

Muscle pain, weakness, or tenderness Hoarseness Blurred vision Hives Rash Itching Nausea Unusual bruising or bleeding Jaundice of the eyes or skin Swelling of the hands, feet, lower legs, throat, tongue, lips, or eyes Pain in the stomach, especially in the upper right corner Loss of appetite Lack of energy or weakness Dark urine Flu-like symptoms Difficulty swallowing or breathing

This is not a complete list of side effects. For more information about adverse effects you may experience while taking pravastatin, please visit the National Institutes of Health’s DailyMed webpage.

The typical starting dose of pravastatin is 40 mg once daily for adults and 20 mg for children ages 8 to 13. It is usually taken alongside a low cholesterol diet and exercise. If you have severe renal impairment and are starting pravastatin you will likely begin dosage at 10 mg a day.

The dosage prescribed to you by your doctor will depend on the severity of the condition, age, weight, and response to therapy.
