Atorberd 20 Tablet is a prescription medicine belonging to a class of drugs known as statins. It is primarily used to manage elevated cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood and to reduce the risk of serious cardiovascular events such as heart attacks and strokes. Cholesterol is a fatty substance that can accumulate in the walls of blood vessels, causing them to narrow and harden—a condition known as atherosclerosis. This can significantly increase the risk of heart disease and other complications.
By helping to lower cholesterol levels, Atorberd 20 Tablet plays a vital role in the long-term management of cardiovascular health. It is considered safe for extended use when taken under medical supervision and is often part of a broader treatment plan that includes lifestyle modifications such as a healthy diet, regular exercise, smoking cessation, and weight control.

How Atorberd 20 Tablet works
Atorberd 20 Tablet works by inhibiting the activity of an enzyme called HMG-CoA reductase, which is essential for cholesterol production in the liver. By blocking this enzyme, the medication reduces the synthesis of cholesterol, particularly low-density lipoprotein (LDL), often referred to as “bad cholesterol.” At the same time, it helps raise levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL), or “good cholesterol.”
This dual action improves the lipid profile, reduces fatty deposits in blood vessels, and promotes better cardiovascular outcomes. Over time, it can help reverse or slow down the progression of blocked arteries and prevent future heart-related issues.
