Fluvastatin is an antilipemic agent that competitively inhibits hydroxymethylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase. Fluvastatin is marketed under the trade names Lescol, Canef, Vastin. LESCOL/LESCOL XL is an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor (statin) indicated as
an adjunctive therapy to diet to:
Reduce elevated TC, LDL-C, Apo B, and TG, and to increase HDL-C in adult
patients with primary hypercholesterolemia and mixed dyslipidemia
Reduce elevated TC, LDL-C, and Apo B levels in boys and post-menarchal
girls, 10 to 16 years of age, with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia
after failing an adequate trial of diet therapy
Reduce the risk of undergoing revascularization procedures in patients with
clinically evident CHD
Slow the progression of atherosclerosis in patients with CHD.
Fluvastatin selectively and competitively inhibits the hepatic enzyme hydroxymethylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase. HMG-CoA reductase is responsible for converting HMG-CoA to mevalonate, the rate-limiting step in cholesterol biosynthesis. Inhibition results in a decrease in hepatic cholesterol levels which stimulates the synthesis of LDL receptors and increases hepatic uptake of LDL cholesterol. The end result is decreased levels of plasma total and LDL cholesterol.

Fluvastatin markedly inhibits the formation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances in iron (II)-supported peroxidation of liposomes with IC50 of 12 uM. Fluvastatin ranging from 1 uM to 100 uM inhibits peroxyl radical-mediated peroxidation of liposomes induced by water-soluble and lipid-soluble radical generators, 2,2'-azobis (2-amidinopropane) dihydro-chloride and 2,2'-azobis (2,4-dimethylvaleronitrile), respectively.
