TabletsClinical Overview
Statin and Ezetimibe is an intensive dual-pathway LDL-lowering formulation. The statin inhibits endogenous cholesterol biosynthesis in the liver, while ezetimibe selectively inhibits the Niemann-Pick C1-Like 1 (NPC1L1) transporter in the intestinal brush border, blocking absorption of dietary and biliary cholesterol. This dual mechanism achieves up to 65% reduction in LDL cholesterol without requiring high-dose statin monotherapy. Indicated for primary hyperlipidemia, familial hypercholesterolemia, and high-risk atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

Usage Guidelines
Take orally once daily in the evening with water, with or without meals. Maintain consistent daily timing alongside a heart-healthy diet.
General Administration Advice: Adhere strictly to the prescribed dosage, frequency, and treatment course. For oral medications, swallow with sufficient water. Never stop antibiotics, psychiatric medications, or antihypertensives abruptly without clinical direction.
Possible Side Effects
Common: Diarrhea, abdominal pain, fatigue, flatulence, myalgia, elevated transaminases. Rare/Severe: Rhabdomyolysis with myoglobinuria, severe hepatotoxicity, and hypersensitivity reactions.
*Note: Individual physiological responses vary. While many patients experience few or no side effects, notify your treating physician if adverse reactions persist or if hypersensitivity (angioedema, skin rash, dyspnea) occurs.
Precautions & Warnings
Contraindicated in active liver disease and during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Promptly report any unexplained muscle aching, tenderness, or weakness. Baseline liver function tests recommended.
Schedule H (Prescription Required)
This medication is scheduled under statutory drug regulatory frameworks (CDSCO / Drugs & Cosmetics Rules). Dispensing requires a valid medical prescription from a registered medical practitioner. Self-medication or unsupervised dosage adjustment carries significant clinical risks.

Atorvastatin Tablets 10mg
HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitor (Statin) on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines. It competitively inhibits 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase, the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis, upregulating hepatic LDL receptors and drastically clearing circulating atherogenic LDL-C, VLDL, and triglycerides while increasing HDL-C and stabilizing atherosclerotic plaques. Indicated for primary hypercholesterolemia, mixed dyslipidemia, and primary/secondary prevention of cardiovascular events (myocardial infarction, stroke, revascularization).
Atorvastatin Tablets 20mg
HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitor (Statin) on the WHO Model List of Essential Medicines. It competitively inhibits 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase, the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis, upregulating hepatic LDL receptors and drastically clearing circulating atherogenic LDL-C, VLDL, and triglycerides while increasing HDL-C and stabilizing atherosclerotic plaques. Indicated for primary hypercholesterolemia, mixed dyslipidemia, and primary/secondary prevention of cardiovascular events (myocardial infarction, stroke, revascularization).
Atorvastatin 10mg + Clopidogrel 75mg Capsules
Statin and Antiplatelet (Aspirin +/- Clopidogrel) cardiovascular polypill formulation. Unites intensive lipid lowering and plaque stabilization (via HMG-CoA reductase inhibition) with antiplatelet thrombus prevention (via irreversible COX-1 inhibition and/or ADP P2Y12 platelet receptor blockade). Indicated for secondary prevention in coronary artery disease, acute coronary syndrome, post-percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI/stenting), and ischemic stroke.
Atorvastatin 10mg + Fenofibrate 160mg Tablets
Statin and Fenofibrate is a comprehensive dual-action lipid-regulating combination. The statin (Atorvastatin or Rosuvastatin) competitively inhibits HMG-CoA reductase, potently lowering LDL cholesterol and apolipoprotein B, while fenofibrate, a fibric acid derivative, activates peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR-alpha), dramatically reducing triglycerides (by 30-50%), increasing HDL cholesterol, and converting atherogenic small dense LDL into larger buoyant particles. Indicated for mixed dyslipidemia, severe hypertriglyceridemia, and diabetic dyslipidemia.
