About this product

Overview

ATORVA 20MG TABLET contains the active ingredient atorvastatin, which belongs to a class of medications called statins. It is primarily used to lower high levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood. Atorvastatin works by inhibiting an enzyme involved in cholesterol production in the liver, leading to reduced levels of LDL cholesterol (“bad” cholesterol) and triglycerides, while increasing levels of HDL cholesterol (“good” cholesterol). This helps to prevent the build-up of fatty plaques in the blood vessels, reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke. ATORVA 20MG TABLET is typically taken orally with or without food, as directed by a healthcare professional.
