Lovastatin Pharmacology Podcast

from Real Life Pharmacology - Pharmacology Education for Health Care Professionals

On this episode of the Real Life Pharmacology Podcast, I discuss lovastatin pharmacology, adverse effect, drug interactions, and more! Lovastatin is broken down by CYP3A4 so drugs like clarithromycin, diltiazem, and others may increase concentrations. Lovastatin is a lipophilic statin and I discuss the importance of this on the podcast. Lovastatin has a very short half-life which means that it is ideal to dose this medication at night for maximal efficacy.
