Pitavastatin is a unique statin medication primarily used to lower cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease. It stands out due to its potent LDL cholesterol-lowering effects at relatively low doses and a lower potential for drug-drug interactions compared to other statins. Additionally, it may have a lower risk of causing muscle-related side effects, which is a common concern with statin therapy.
