Long-term efficacy of pitavastatin versus simvastatin
TL;DR: Both treatments were generally well tolerated, but pitavastatin 4 mg was associated with a numerically lower incidence of discontinuations due to treatment-emergent adverse events and a lower rate of myalgia compared with simvastatin 40–80 mg.

High performance liquid chromatography mass spectrometric method for the simultaneous quantification of pravastatin and aspirin in human plasma: Pharmacokinetic application.
TL;DR: A rapid and sensitive liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometric (LC–MS/MS) assay method has been developed and fully validated for the simultaneous quantification of pravastatin and aspirin in human plasma and was found to be applicable to clinical studies.
