ATCHOL GOLD 10 CAP

Introduction

Atchol Gold 10 Capsule is a prescription medicine that combines three active ingredients to help reduce the risk of heart attack. It works by lowering cholesterol levels and preventing the formation of harmful clots in the blood vessels. This dual action supports overall heart and vascular health.

The capsule may be taken with or without food, but taking it at the same time each day helps maintain steady effectiveness. Your doctor will decide the right dose and duration based on your medical condition. Do not discontinue it on your own, even if you feel better, as this may increase the risk of complications. Alongside medication, adopting a healthy lifestyle with regular exercise, balanced diet, and avoiding smoking will improve the benefits of treatment.

Possible Side Effects

The most common effect noticed with this medicine is a tendency to bleed more easily. Some people may also experience indigestion, stomach discomfort, nausea, headache, bruising, diarrhea, constipation, sore throat, or nasal irritation. Occasionally, muscle or joint pain may occur. In rare cases, serious problems such as yellowing of the skin, dark urine, or severe muscle weakness should be reported to the doctor promptly.

Precautions

This medicine may not be suitable for individuals with bleeding disorders, stomach ulcers, or serious liver or kidney problems. It should be used carefully by patients with any underlying organ conditions and only under medical supervision. Alcohol intake should be limited during treatment as it can worsen side effects. Pregnant women must not take this medicine, and breastfeeding mothers should consult their doctor before use.

Uses

• Helps in preventing heart attack

• Supports control of cholesterol and triglyceride levels

Benefits

By combining three medicines in one capsule, it offers protection in more than one way. Atorvastatin reduces the production of harmful cholesterol while raising protective cholesterol. Aspirin and Clopidogrel, both blood thinners, lower the risk of clot formation and stop existing clots from growing. This combined action helps safeguard the heart and maintain healthy blood circulation.

How It Should Be Taken

Swallow the capsule whole with water, preferably with food. Always follow the doctor’s instructions regarding dose and duration.

How It Works

The medicine contains Aspirin, Atorvastatin, and Clopidogrel. Aspirin and Clopidogrel act on platelets to reduce the chances of clotting. Atorvastatin lowers cholesterol production by blocking an enzyme in the liver. Together, they keep blood flowing smoothly and protect against heart-related conditions.

Safety Considerations

• Alcohol should be avoided or taken with caution, as it may increase risks.

• Not safe during pregnancy, as it may harm the baby.

• Breastfeeding mothers should use it only if clearly advised.

• Usually does not interfere with driving ability.

• Should be used cautiously in patients with kidney or liver problems; not recommended in severe or active disease.

Missed Dose

If a dose is forgotten, take it as soon as possible. If it is close to the next scheduled dose, skip the missed one and continue as normal. Do not take extra capsules to make up for a missed dose.
