Hi,

Thanks for your question.
Livalo contains Pitavastatin, Rozat contains Rosuvastatin and Modlip contain Atorvastatin.
All are statins used as cholesterol lowering agent.

Only one should be used at a time no indication of using 2 or more of them simultaneously.
As used singly there is no possibility of interaction with each other.

One can substitute one with other in appropriate dose.
Pitavastatin 2mg is considered as equivalent to Rosuvastatin 5mg or Atorvastatin 10mg.

Maximal dose used for Pitavastatin is 4mg, of Rosuvastatin 40mg and Atorvastatin 80mg.

Hope this helps you.
