Modeled equivalent dose
Atorvastatin
about20mg/day
Range 10–80 mg/day: Most patients fall within this range; an individual may differ.
Individual-patient (VOYAGER) estimateFor these three statins the VOYAGER individual-patient data are the stronger basis and usually give a higher equivalent — about 29.0 mg/day here. Check this against the patient's achieved LDL-C.
Evidence: 3 of 5 stars: Reasonable method with moderate or indirect supporting evidence.

Atorvastatin · equivalent likely range
Rosuvastatin 10 mg/day ≈ Atorvastatin 20 mg/day at an equal LDL-C reduction (~43%).
Cross-statin noteThis cross-statin estimate uses the Law equal-LDL anchor table. Equal-LDL conversions can disagree with individual-patient-data equipotency, so verify against the patient's achieved LDL-C.
Why this estimate & cautions
Population-average equivalence on a surrogate endpoint (LDL-C reduction), not cardiovascular outcomes; an individual patient may fall outside the displayed band. Equipotent dose, not interchangeable product.
Educational PK model: not clinical guidance. Confirm any dose change with a prescriber or pharmacist.
