Product introduction
Lipitas 10 Tablet is a cholesterol-lowering medicine that belongs to a group of drugs called statins. It helps reduce the levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood, thereby lowering the risk of heart-related issues such as heart attacks and strokes. Cholesterol is a fatty substance that can build up in the blood vessels, causing them to narrow and harden, which may lead to serious cardiovascular problems.

This medicine can be taken with or without food at any time of the day, but it is best to take it at the same time daily to maintain consistent levels in your body. People with high cholesterol generally do not experience symptoms, so it is important to keep taking this medicine regularly even if you feel well. Stopping the treatment suddenly may cause cholesterol levels to rise again, increasing the chances of heart disease and stroke.

Regular monitoring of cholesterol levels is essential while on this medication. For best results, it should be combined with lifestyle changes such as following a balanced diet, exercising regularly, quitting smoking, limiting alcohol intake, and maintaining a healthy weight. While you can continue eating your normal meals, try to avoid foods that are high in saturated fats and trans fats.

Some common side effects include muscle pain, weakness, nausea, dizziness, headache, abdominal discomfort, and joint pain. These side effects are usually mild and tend to go away on their own. However, if they persist or worsen, or if you notice yellowing of the skin or eyes or experience unexplained muscle pain, consult your doctor immediately.

This medicine is not recommended for individuals with active liver disease. Pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers should avoid using this medicine as it may harm the baby. Diabetic patients should monitor their blood sugar levels closely, as statins can sometimes cause a slight increase in blood sugar.
