Some general considerations to keep in mind during treatment with Juvisync include the following:
- Your Juvisync medication should be taken once a day in the evening. You may take this medication with or without food.
- Swallow the tablets whole; do not break, chew, or crush them.
- For Juvisync to work properly, it must be taken as prescribed.
It is recommended that people who are taking Juvisync not drink large quantities of grapefruit juice, as this can increase the levels of
simvastatin (one of the active ingredients) in the blood. This could increase the risk for developing serious muscle problems. If you want to continue drinking grapefruit juice, talk to your doctor about other
cholesterol-lowering medications that you can take.
The dose of Juvisync your healthcare provider recommends will vary, depending on a number of factors, including:
- How you respond to the medication
- Other medical conditions you may have
- Other medications you are taking.
As is always the case, do not adjust your dosage unless your healthcare provider specifically tells you to do so.
