Atherochek 10 mg Tablet is used to treat Hyperlipidemia (High cholesterol) and Hyperhomocysteinemia (high levels of homocysteine). It contains Atorvastatin, Folic Acid, Methylcobalamin and Pyridoxine hydrochloride. Atorvastatin is a lipid-lowering medication that inhibits an enzyme (HMG-CoA-reductase) essential for cholesterol production. Thus, Atherochek 10 mg Tablet reduces the amount of fat or cholesterol deposition (plaque) in the heart's arteries, lowering the risk of having a heart attack or stroke in the future. Folic Acid, Methylcobalamin and Pyridoxine hydrochloride work together to lower homocysteine levels. Thus, it aids in the treatment of hyperhomocysteinemia. In hyperlipidemic patients, it is used with lifestyle changes to reduce lipid levels.
