lovastatin: I used this Statin for almost a year (20mg/day), didn't work for me (my total was 266-275). 0 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate

Mevacor (lovastatin): I have been on lovastatin for many years. I started with Mevacor and then tried later statins, but seemed to experience minor muscle aches from the newer ones and I requested to stay on lovastatin. 17 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate

Altoprev (lovastatin): Altoprev is the ONLY statin drug I can tolerate. It is due to the timed-release of the drug over 24 hours. I do not recieve that whopping dose of the drug all at once. However, my ins. Rx. coverage wil not cover it. I do not get to take it regularly, due to fixed income. It is 160.00 a month. But this is the drug for me and I get it filled about every other month. 9 user(s) found this comment helpful. Did you? Yes No Report as inappropriate
