About Atorsave D 10 Tablet 15's

Atorsave D 10 Tablet 15's is a cholesterol-lowering medicine containing atorvastatin (statins or lipid reducer) and cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3). It helps lower bad cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein-LDL) and triglycerides (fats) levels. Hence, it reduces the risk of heart attack and stroke in the future. Two types of cholesterol are found in our body: good cholesterol (high-density lipoprotein) and bad cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein). Good cholesterol is good for our heart and helps reduce the bad cholesterol in our body. On the other hand, excess bad cholesterol (LDL) leads to the risk of heart diseases like heart attack and stroke.

Atorsave D 10 Tablet 15's works by blocking liver enzymes, causing the liver to make less cholesterol. So, Atorsave D 10 Tablet 15's increases the uptake and breakdown by the liver of cholesterol already in the blood. Thus, Atorsave D 10 Tablet 15's lowers the levels of lipids known as cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood when lifestyle changes (like a low-fat diet) on their own have failed. Atorsave D 10 Tablet 15's reduces the ‘bad’ cholesterol and increases the ‘good’ cholesterol by blocking our body’s production of ‘bad’ cholesterol. It also improves your body’s ability to remove it from your blood. Cholecalciferol is added to relieve the muscle pain caused due to atorvastatin. Collectively, Atorsave D 10 Tablet 15's helps reduce cholesterol levels in the blood.

The prescribed dose of Atorsave D 10 Tablet 15's is daily once a day at the same time. Your doctor will advise you on how often you take your tablets based on your medical condition. You can take Atorsave D 10 Tablet 15's with food or without food. It should be swallowed whole with a glass of water. Do not chew, bite, or break it. In a few cases, you may experience allergic reactions, headache, blurred vision, pain, constipation, nausea, diarrhoea, muscle spasms, joint swelling, and back pain. Most of these side effects of Atorsave D 10 Tablet 15's do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time.

Atorsave D 10 Tablet 15's may cause a breakdown of skeletal muscle tissue, leading to kidney failure. This condition usually occurs in the elderly, people with kidney disease, and poorly controlled hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid). Atorsave D 10 Tablet 15's should not be prescribed to children less than ten years of age. You should contact a doctor before if you have had an allergic reaction to Atorsave D 10 Tablet 15's, have liver or kidney problems, pregnant or planning to get pregnant, are breastfeeding, have severe lung disease, have a previous heart attack or stroke caused by bleeding in the brain, have hypothyroidism, drink more than two servings of alcohol per day and have a muscle disorder (fibromyalgia).
