About Lescol XL (Fluvastatin XL)

Uses and Benefits of Lescol XL (Fluvastatin)

Lescol XL (fluvastatin) is indicated for lowering cholesterol levels and improving heart health. It helps reduce the need for heart and blood vessel procedures, such as coronary revascularization, in adults with heart disease (coronary artery disease). Lescol XL works by slowing the buildup of “bad” cholesterol in the heart’s arteries.

It is used along with diet to lower low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), also known as “bad” cholesterol, in adults with hyperlipidemia (high fat levels in the blood).

It is also used in adults and children 10 years and older with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HeFH), a genetic condition that causes high LDL levels, who require 80 mg of fluvastatin daily.

The safety and effectiveness of Lescol XL have not been established in children younger than 10 years with HeFH or in children with other types of hyperlipidemia.
