Livamed 1 Deus Medical

Livamed 1 Deus Medical

LIVAMED 1 by Deus Medical contains Pitavastatin, one of the most advanced and potent medications in the statin class (HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors). Unlike older statins that require high dosages to be effective, Pitavastatin is highly efficient at very low concentrations, providing a powerful defense against the lipid-related side effects of performance-enhancing drugs.

For athletes and bodybuilders, LIVAMED 1 is a critical ancillary tool. Anabolic steroids are notorious for creating a "pro-atherogenic" environment—spiking LDL (bad cholesterol) and crushing HDL (good cholesterol).¹ Pitavastatin works in the liver to block cholesterol production, helping to maintain a safer cardiovascular profile during and after intensive cycles.

Technical Product Specifications

Core Performance & Health Benefits

• Superior LDL Suppression: Pitavastatin effectively lowers "bad" cholesterol levels, reducing the risk of plaque buildup (atherosclerosis) in the arteries.²

• High Potency, Low Dose: Because it is more potent per milligram than older statins like Simvastatin, users can achieve significant results with just 1 mg to 2 mg daily.

• Reduced Drug Interactions: Pitavastatin has a unique metabolic pathway (minimal use of the CYP3A4 enzyme).³ This is a major advantage for athletes, as it is less likely to interact negatively with other oral medications or supplements.

• Triglyceride Management: In addition to LDL reduction, it helps lower circulating triglycerides, further improving the overall lipid profile.⁴

• Endothelial Support: Beyond cholesterol, Pitavastatin helps improve the health of the blood vessel lining, supporting better overall blood flow and cardiovascular resilience.⁵

Usage & Dosage Protocols

LIVAMED 1 is designed for once-daily use to provide 24-hour protection of the cardiovascular system.

Pro-Tip: Because Pitavastatin is long-acting, it does not need to be taken at night like older statins. Many users include it in their morning supplement routine for better consistency.

Side Effects & Management

LIVAMED 1 is generally well-tolerated, but users should be aware of the following:

1. Muscle Sensitivity: Statins can occasionally cause muscle aches or weakness (myopathy).⁶ If unexplained muscle pain occurs, consult a physician.

2. Liver Enzymes: Periodic blood work is recommended to monitor liver enzymes (ALT/AST), especially when stacking with oral steroids.

3. CoQ10 Depletion: Statins can lower natural CoQ10 levels.⁷ Many athletes supplement with 200 mg of CoQ10 (Ubiquinol) daily to prevent fatigue and support heart muscle health.

4. Digestive Comfort: Minor issues like constipation or localized back pain have been reported in rare cases.⁸

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Why is Pitavastatin preferred over older statins?

It offers two main benefits: it is more potent at lower doses and has fewer drug-to-drug interactions. This makes it safer for individuals who are already taking multiple supplements or performance compounds.

2. Can I use LIVAMED 1 while on an oral steroid cycle?

Yes. In fact, this is when it is most useful. Oral steroids often cause a rapid rise in LDL cholesterol; taking LIVAMED 1 can help mitigate this spike and protect your long-term heart health.

3. Does it work better than Ezetimibe (EZETIMED)?

They are different tools. Pitavastatin stops the liver from making cholesterol, while Ezetimibe stops the gut from absorbing it. For severe cholesterol issues, they are often stacked together for a multi-pronged approach.

4. How long does it take to see an improvement in blood work?

Significant reductions in LDL cholesterol are typically visible in blood tests within 2 to 4 weeks of consistent daily use.
