What is the equivalent dose of Fluvastatin in statin equivalent doses?

  1. Fluvastatin 80 mg

  2. Pravastatin 40 mg

  3. Lovastatin 40 mg

  4. Pitavastatin 2 mg

The correct answer is: Fluvastatin 80 mg

Fluvastatin is considered equivalent to 80 mg of Pravastatin, 40 mg of Lovastatin, and 2 mg of Pitavastatin in statin equivalent doses. This means that taking Fluvastatin 80 mg has a similar cholesterol-lowering effect as taking Pravastatin 80 mg, Lovastatin 40 mg, or Pitavastatin 2 mg. Therefore, the correct answer is A.
