About Atherochek 10 mg Tablet
Atherochek 10 mg Tablet is used to treat Hyperlipidemia (an excess of lipids in the blood) and Hyperhomocysteinemia (high levels of homocysteine, an amino acid linked to cardiovascular diseases due to deficiencies of vitamins). Hyperlipidaemia, often known as high cholesterol, occurs when your blood has an abnormally high level of a fatty component called cholesterol. Too much cholesterol might cause blood vessel blockage. It increases your chances of having heart problems or having a stroke.
Atherochek 10 mg Tablet contains Atorvastatin, Folic Acid, Methylcobalamin and Pyridoxine hydrochloride. Atorvastatin is a lipid-lowering medicine that works by blocking an enzyme (HMG-CoA-reductase) required to make cholesterol. Thus, Atherochek 10 mg Tablet lowers the amount of fat or cholesterol deposition (plaque) in the heart's arteries, thereby reducing the chance of having a heart attack or stroke in the future. Folic Acid, Methylcobalamin and Pyridoxine hydrochloride collectively reduce Homocysteine levels. Thus, it aids in the treatment of hyperhomocysteinemia.
