Atorfit 10 Tablet

Atorfit 10 Tablet Overview
Atorfit 10 is a statin-class medication used primarily to manage elevated cholesterol levels and minimize the risk of heart-related conditions such as heart attacks and strokes. Cholesterol buildup can narrow blood vessels, increasing the risk of cardiovascular events. By controlling cholesterol, Atorfit helps support long-term heart health.

How It Works
This medication lowers bad cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides while increasing good cholesterol (HDL). It works by blocking the HMG-CoA reductase enzyme, which is essential in cholesterol production within the body.

Usage Instructions
Atorfit 10 can be taken with or without food, preferably at the same time each day for consistent results. Swallow the tablet whole—do not chew or crush it. Even if you feel well, continue taking it as prescribed to maintain its cholesterol-lowering benefits.

Who Should Take It
This medication is typically recommended for individuals with high cholesterol, elevated triglyceride levels, or those at risk of heart disease. It is part of a broader treatment plan, including a healthy diet, regular physical activity, and lifestyle changes like smoking cessation and limiting alcohol intake.
