How ATORSAVE D 10MG TABLET Works
ATORSAVE D 10MG TABLET contains two medicines namely, atorvastatin and cholecalciferol. Atorvastatin is a cholesterol lowering agent. It effectively reduces the levels of bad cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides in the body by blocking the actions of an enzyme called HMG-CoA reductase that synthesizes cholesterol within the body. It also acts on the liver and improves the body’s ability to remove fat particles from the blood.
Cholecalciferol is a form of Vitamin D. It supplements your body with a sufficient amount of Vitamin D3 which manages vitamin D3 deficiency and its associated bone problems. It also improves the cholesterol-reducing actions of atorvastatin and can reduce the muscle pain and damage caused due to atorvastatin within the body.
