Atorlip 10Mg 30Tab

Atorlip is a medication used to treat high cholesterol levels in the blood, belonging to a class of drugs known as statins. This medication works to reduce levels of bad cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides, helping to lower the risk of cardiovascular diseases.

Atorlip works by inhibiting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, a key enzyme in the cholesterol production process in the liver. By reducing cholesterol production, Atorlip increases the body's ability to remove bad cholesterol from the blood. This leads to improved blood lipid levels and reduces the risk of heart attacks and strokes. Additionally, it may help improve vascular health.
