About TARO-ATORVASTATIN
TARO-ATORVASTATIN is a medication that belongs to the group of statins, used to lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood. It is primarily prescribed to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease and manage conditions such as hyperlipidemia. By reducing the levels of "bad" cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein, LDL) and increasing the levels of "good" cholesterol (high-density lipoprotein, HDL), TARO-ATORVASTATIN helps to prevent heart attacks, strokes, and other cardiovascular events.
Key Benefits & Uses

Active Ingredient & Action
ATORVASTATIN (ATORVASTATIN CALCIUM), the active ingredient in TARO-ATORVASTATIN, works by inhibiting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, which plays a key role in the production of cholesterol in the liver. By reducing the amount of cholesterol produced in the liver, ATORVASTATIN decreases the overall levels of cholesterol in the blood, thereby reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease.
