ATORVA E 40 mg Tablet is a combination medicine containing Atorvastatin and Ezetimibe, used to manage primary hypercholesterolemia (high cholesterol levels). It helps reduce harmful cholesterol and fats such as LDL (low-density lipoprotein) and triglycerides, while increasing HDL (high-density lipoprotein or “good” cholesterol) levels in the blood.
This medicine is typically prescribed alongside a low-fat diet, regular exercise, and lifestyle changes. High cholesterol may not show symptoms but can lead to serious health conditions like heart attacks or stroke if left untreated.
