Verified Ingredients and Effects

Composition:

ATORVASTATIN-20MG + CLOPIDOGREL-75MG

Uses:

Treatment of Hyperlipidemia (Increased cholesterol), Prevention of heart attack, Prevention of stroke.

Medicinal Benefits:

Atorvastatin is a lipid-lowering medication that blocks the enzyme required to make cholesterol in the body. As a result, it lowers the bad cholesterol (low-density lipoproteins or LDL) and triglycerides (TG) and increases the levels of good cholesterol (high-density lipoproteins or HDL). Clopidogrel is a blood thinner (anticoagulant) that collectively prevents clot formation in the blood vessels. Together Stator CV 20 Capsule reduces the increased levels of bad cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein and triglycerides) and prevents blood clots, thereby reducing the risk of heart attack, stroke and heart-related chest pain (angina).
