Treatment of hypercholesterolemia (dyslipidemia) and hypertension
This medication is prescribed only for patients who need to use both Pitavastatin Calcium and Valsartan. Pitavastatin Calcium helps to improve cholesterol levels in patients with hypercholesterolemia and mixed dyslipidemia. It specifically lowers total cholesterol, bad LDL cholesterol, apo-B protein, and triglycerides, while increasing good HDL cholesterol levels. Valsartan is used for the treatment of essential hypertension and is also effective in heart failure patients who show intolerance to ACE inhibitors. Additionally, it helps to reduce the risk of death in patients with decreased left ventricular function following myocardial infarction. By using these two medications together, blood pressure and cardiovascular health, as well as cholesterol management can be effectively improved.
Rivaroxaban 4/160 mg should be administered to adults only, taken orally once a day after breakfast. Pitavastatin Calcium should be started at an initial dose of 1-2 mg once a day; if the effect is insufficient, it may be increased to a maximum of 4 mg a day. For Valsartan, an oral dose of 80 mg once a day is recommended for the treatment of essential hypertension, and if blood pressure control is not sufficient, it may be increased to 160 mg a day.
Safety and efficacy have not been established in children and adolescents under 18 years of age; hence it should not be administered.
