Lipitas 40mg Tablet 1*10

Product introduction
Lipitas 40mg Tablet is a medication that belongs to a group of drugs known as statins. It is primarily used to reduce high cholesterol and triglyceride levels, thereby lowering the risk of heart-related problems. Cholesterol is a fatty substance that can accumulate in blood vessels, causing them to narrow, which may eventually lead to serious conditions like heart attacks or strokes.

This medicine is commonly prescribed for long-term use and is considered safe when taken as advised by a healthcare professional. It can be taken either with food or on an empty stomach, at any time of the day, but it’s best to take it at the same time each day. Since high cholesterol usually does not cause noticeable symptoms, stopping the medication without medical advice can cause cholesterol levels to rise again, increasing the risk of heart disease and stroke.

To get the best results, regular monitoring of cholesterol levels is important. Lipitas 40mg Tablet works best when combined with a healthy lifestyle that includes a balanced diet, regular physical activity, quitting smoking, limiting alcohol consumption, and maintaining a healthy weight. While you don’t need to follow a strict diet, try to avoid foods rich in unhealthy fats.

Some people may experience side effects such as muscle pain, weakness, headache, nausea, or stomach discomfort. These are generally mild and tend to resolve on their own. However, if they persist or if you notice symptoms like yellowing of the eyes or severe unexplained muscle pain, seek medical attention immediately.

This medicine is not suitable for individuals with active liver disease. It should not be used by pregnant or breastfeeding women as it may harm the baby. People with diabetes should keep a close watch on their blood sugar levels, as this medicine may cause a slight increase in blood sugar.

How to take Lipitas 40mg Tablet
Take the medicine exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Swallow the tablet whole with water, without chewing or crushing it. It can be taken with or without food, but try to take it at the same time every day for best results.

How it works
Lipitas 40mg Tablet is a statin that lowers cholesterol levels by blocking an enzyme (HMG-CoA reductase) involved in the production of cholesterol in the body. This results in a decrease in bad cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides, while increasing good cholesterol (HDL), promoting better heart health.
