We found Canadian pricing for Pitavastatin Calcium starting near $0.230 per tablet in USD terms. That's before any shipping charge, which the table above breaks out separately.

Why is Pitavastatin Calcium (Livalo) priced differently in the US and Canada?

Drug pricing is set separately in each country through different negotiation, regulatory, and distribution systems, so the same medication can legitimately carry different price tags on either side of the border. In this case, our data shows the Canadian price coming in lower — but that isn't true for every drug, so it's worth checking each medication individually rather than assuming.

What is Livalo and what does it treat?

Livalo (pitavastatin) is a prescription statin used to treat high cholesterol in patients for whom diet and exercise alone have been insufficient. It works by decreasing the liver's production of cholesterol, which can help lower LDL ("bad") cholesterol and triglyceride levels while potentially increasing HDL ("good") cholesterol.

How is Livalo classified among statin medications?

Livalo's active ingredient, pitavastatin, is considered a moderate-intensity statin. When taken as prescribed daily, it is generally expected to lower LDL cholesterol levels by approximately 30% to 50%.

What are the available dosage strengths for Livalo?

Livalo tablets come in 1 mg, 2 mg, and 4 mg strengths. The typical starting dose is 2 mg to 4 mg taken once daily, with or without food. Patients with certain kidney conditions may be advised to start at a lower dose. Always follow your doctor's specific dosing instructions.
