Talk:Pravastatin

History
I found it very hard to confirm the discovery of pravastatin. offers another version, and this patent text states that the role of nocardia is only in its conversion from compactin. More assistance from a medicinal chemist needed. JFW | T@lk  08:03, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Looks like someone who works for the manufacturer of Crestor took exception to his own company's admission in advertisements that Crestor doesn't provide any benefit for the reduction of heart disease, heart attack, and stroke. Such a reaction greatly dims the credibility of all of the articles in Wikipedia.

"Pravastatin has undergone over 112,000 patient-years of double-blind randomized trials utilizing the 40mg once daily dose and placebos" - sounds like a drug rep's pitch... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Infunndibulum (talk • contribs) 19:50, 8 April 2014 (UTC)
