Lipicure 40 Tablet

Product Introduction
Lipicure 40 Tablet is a medication from the statin group, commonly used to manage high cholesterol levels and lower the chances of developing heart-related issues. Cholesterol is a type of fat that can accumulate in the blood vessels, leading to narrowing of the arteries, which increases the risk of heart attack or stroke.

This medicine is frequently prescribed for long-term use and is generally considered safe when taken as directed by your doctor. It can be taken with or without food, at any time of the day, but taking it at the same time daily helps maintain its effectiveness. Even if you feel healthy, stopping the medication suddenly may cause cholesterol levels to rise again, which can increase the likelihood of heart problems.

Routine cholesterol level checks are important while using this medicine. It works best when combined with a healthy lifestyle that includes a balanced diet, regular physical activity, avoiding smoking, limiting alcohol intake, and maintaining a healthy body weight. While on this medicine, try to avoid foods high in saturated fats.

Some people may experience mild side effects such as nausea, diarrhea, indigestion, joint pain, or muscle aches, especially with long-term use. These effects usually subside on their own, but if they persist or if you notice symptoms like yellowing of the eyes or severe muscle pain, you should contact your doctor immediately.

This medicine is not suitable for individuals with certain liver conditions. It should not be taken by pregnant or breastfeeding women, as it may be harmful to the baby. Diabetic patients may need to monitor their blood sugar closely, as this medicine can sometimes cause slight increases in blood glucose levels. Before starting treatment, your doctor may perform liver function tests and continue to monitor them during therapy.
