CAAT 10 Tablet is a medicine commonly prescribed to manage high cholesterol and triglyceride levels. It belongs to a group of drugs called statins, which work by lowering the amount of bad cholesterol (LDL) and fats in the blood while raising good cholesterol (HDL). By keeping cholesterol under control, it helps reduce the risk of heart attack, stroke, and other heart-related complications.
Uses
• Control of high cholesterol levels
• Management of high triglycerides
• Prevention of heart attack and stroke in at-risk patients

Benefits
CAAT 10 Tablet helps clear excess cholesterol from the blood vessels, preventing narrowing and blockages. This improves blood flow, reduces strain on the heart, and lowers the chances of serious cardiovascular events. When combined with a healthy lifestyle, it supports long-term heart health.
Possible side effects
Some people may experience headache, stomach pain, constipation, muscle pain, weakness, or nausea. In rare cases, it can affect liver function or cause severe muscle problems. Any unusual or persistent discomfort should be reported to the doctor.
How to take it
Take this medicine in the dose and duration recommended by your doctor. It can be taken with or without food, preferably in the evening or at bedtime, as cholesterol production in the body is highest at night. Swallow the tablet whole with water and try to take it at the same time each day.
How it works
CAAT 10 Tablet contains Atorvastatin, a statin that lowers cholesterol by blocking an enzyme in the liver responsible for cholesterol production. This reduces bad cholesterol and triglycerides, while improving good cholesterol, helping keep arteries clear and healthy.
