Buying from a pharmacy outside the U.S.? Read Is it safe to order Lescol XL from Canada?
90-day cost = 90 tablets at the usual dose of 1 a day, bought as one order of whole packs with one shipping fee. 90-day cost is worked out from each pharmacy's real order size so different pack sizes compare fairly. Orders are kept within a 3-month supply (92 days); a pack that is larger than that is marked and not used for the lowest price at the top of this page. Prices checked Nov 12, 2026 on each pharmacy's website, in U.S. dollars. Savings compare with the U.S. list price. The lowest price at the top of this page uses only packs whose maker the pharmacy names, or whose product country and ships-from country it states. Price is the pharmacy's own price for one pack, as shown on its website (converted to U.S. dollars when it prices in Canadian dollars). Delivery is the pharmacy's own estimate for the shipping option shown, not a promise; some pharmacies count from when they receive your prescription or ship the order. Total = the packs needed + shipping. When those packs don't add up to exactly 90 days, the row shows what that order costs and, under it, what it works out to for 90 days; we sort by the 90-day amount so pack sizes compare fairly. Prices change often; confirm at checkout. U.S. rows: the cash price a U.S. pharmacy published on its own website on the date shown, for whole fills, plus its standard shipping; no insurance or discount cards.

What is Lescol XL used for?
Lescol XL is a statin, a medicine that lowers LDL ("bad") cholesterol. According to its FDA label (DailyMed), it is used:
- Along with diet, to lower LDL cholesterol in adults with primary hyperlipidemia (high cholesterol).
- In adults with heart disease, to lower the chance of needing a procedure to open heart arteries and to slow the buildup of plaque.
- Along with diet, in children 10 and older with an inherited form of high cholesterol (HeFH) who need 80 mg of fluvastatin a day.
The label's dose is one 80 mg tablet once a day, with or without food, swallowed whole. It isn't for people with acute liver failure or decompensated cirrhosis. Your prescriber decides which medicine is right for you.
Is it safe to order Lescol XL from Canada?
Many Americans do, but U.S. law and customs rules apply, and for Lescol XL, compare the U.S. price of FDA-approved generic fluvastatin ER before you order. Federal law generally doesn't allow individuals to import prescription drugs, though under its personal importation policy the FDA has long used enforcement discretion for some personal-use shipments, generally no more than a three-month supply (FDA). Congress has said enforcement against individuals should focus on imports that pose a significant threat to public health (Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act section 804(j)(1), 21 U.S.C. 384(j)(1)). You need a prescription from your doctor. New U.S. Customs rules for mailed orders start January 20, 2027. Lescol XL is no longer sold in Canada: Health Canada lists it as cancelled in 2021 (Health Canada Drug Product Database, checked 2026-11-12), so packs abroad come from other countries.
