How does this medicine work?

Fluvastatin blocks an enzyme the liver uses to make cholesterol. This lowers harmful cholesterol in the blood and helps reduce cholesterol build-up in artery walls.

Interactions

Interactions with other medicines

Some medicines can affect the way fluvastatin works and can increase the risk of muscle problems. Tell your doctor about all medicines, supplements, and herbal products you take. In particular, mention cyclosporine, fluconazole, gemfibrozil, rifampicin, phenytoin, warfarin, and bile-acid binding medicines.
