Description
Aztor 40mg Tablets contain Atorvastatin, a statin used to lower high cholesterol and triglyceride levels. It works by blocking an enzyme needed to produce cholesterol, thus reducing “bad” cholesterol (LDL) and increasing “good” cholesterol (HDL). This helps prevent heart disease, heart attacks, and strokes.
Dosage/Directions: Take one tablet daily, with or without food, at the same time each day. Follow your doctor’s instructions precisely. Do not exceed the recommended dose, and continue taking it even if you feel well.
Side Effects: Common side effects include muscle pain, joint pain, nausea, diarrhea, and headache. Rare but serious side effects include liver problems, severe muscle breakdown (rhabdomyolysis), and allergic reactions. Contact your doctor if you experience unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness, especially if accompanied by fever or dark urine.
