Statin brand analysis

Lipitor (atorvastatin) – the gold-standard statin

Zocor (simvastatin) – HPS results may be too late

Pravachol (pravastatin) – strategies to slow the decline in sales

Mevalotin (pravastatin) – MEGA study holds the future

Lescol (fluvastatin) – to be replaced by pitavastatin?

Mevacor (lovastatin) – increasing erosion from genericization

Advicor (lovastatin/ER niacin) – the first combination statin

Crestor (rosuvastatin) – additional safety data required

Livalo (pitavastatin) – not so 'superstatin' ?

CHAPTER 5 FIBRATES

Key findings

'Others'  market forecast

'Others'  brand analysis

Zetia (ezetimibe) – revenue protection for Zocor
