Pravastatin decreases the production of LDL cholesterol by blocking the action of the enzyme in the liver that is responsible for its production. This decreases the amount of cholesterol in the liver cells, causing them to take up LDL cholesterol from the blood. The decreased cholesterol production and increased removal of LDL cholesterol from the blood ultimately results in lowered blood cholesterol levels. Pravastatin also causes a small decrease in the production of other ‘bad fats’ in the blood called triglycerides, and a small increase in the level of HDL cholesterol. This results in lowered levels of ‘bad fats’ and raised levels of ‘good fats’ in the blood.

What are the possible side effects of pravastatin (Pravachol)?
  • unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness;
  • fever, unusual tiredness;
  • dark colored urine;
  • chest pain;
  • upper stomach pain, loss of appetite; or.
  • jaundice (yellowing of the skin or eyes).

Indications :

 

  • Lowering of the levels of cholesterol, LDL-C and triglycerides, and increasing the level of HDL-C.
  • In patients with a high cholesterol level and without evidence of coronary heart disease, pravastatin reduces the risk of myocardial infarction and prolongs life expectancy.
  • In patients with atherosclerosis and an average (normal) or high cholesterol level, pravastatin reduces the overall mortality risk, including mortality from heart diseases, as well as the risk of a heart attack; in patients with a high cholesterol level, pravastatin reduces the risk of angina pectoris.
