Atorva 10 Tablet is a statin medicine that helps lower high cholesterol and reduce the chances of heart problems like chest pain (angina), heart attacks, and strokes.

It lowers cholesterol by inhibiting its creation in the liver. This helps lower bad cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides, while increasing good cholesterol (HDL), which helps remove harmful fats from the blood.

High cholesterol usually does not cause symptoms, but it can slowly lead to the buildup of fatty deposits inside the blood vessels (called atherosclerosis). These deposits can make the vessels narrow or block, increasing the risk of serious heart and blood vessel diseases.

Atorva 10 Tablet is prescribed when lifestyle changes such as healthy diet, exercising regularly, and weight control are not enough to control cholesterol levels and protect heart health.

Atorva 10 Tablet is prescribed for:

• Lowering high levels of cholesterol (including LDL or "bad" cholesterol) and triglycerides in the blood, especially when diet and exercise alone are not sufficient.

• Reducing the risk of heart diseases, such as heart attacks and strokes, by preventing the narrowing of blood vessels (atherosclerosis).

• Treating conditions like hypercholesterolemia, and hypertriglyceridemia



How Atorva 10 Tablet Works:

Atorva 10 Tablet contains atorvastatin, which belongs to a group of medicines called HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins). It blocks the action of the HMG-CoA reductase enzyme in the liver, which plays a key role in producing cholesterol. By slowing down cholesterol synthesis, the tablet helps lower the overall cholesterol level in the blood.

With less cholesterol circulating, it prevents excessive fat from depositing on the inner walls of blood vessels. This reduces narrowing or blockage of arteries and helps maintain proper blood flow to vital organs such as the heart and brain. By effectively lowering bad cholesterol and improving lipid profile, Atorva 10 Tablet helps reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events, including heart attacks, strokes, and other complications related to high cholesterol.
