Description
Pitalo Tablets 2mg contain Pitavastatin, a potent HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor (statin) prescribed as an adjunct to dietary therapy for adults with primary hyperlipidaemia or mixed dyslipidaemia. At the 2mg dose, Pitavastatin delivers significant LDL-C lowering alongside reductions in total cholesterol, apolipoprotein B, and triglycerides, and a favourable increase in HDL-C.
The 2mg dose is commonly used as the standard maintenance or titration step after initiation at 1mg, or as an appropriate starting dose for patients with moderate lipid elevations. Pitavastatin's low dependence on CYP3A4 metabolism supports a reduced drug interaction profile compared to other statins in common use.
Pitalo 2mg is a prescription-only medicine manufactured by Genix Pharma. Lipid panel and liver function tests should be monitored regularly. A valid prescription is required. Contact Derma.pk at sales@derma.pk or WhatsApp +92-320-5999650.
