How Avas 40mg Tablet works
Avas 40mg Tablet contains Atorvastatin, a statin that works by inhibiting the enzyme HMG-CoA reductase, which is essential for the body to produce cholesterol. By blocking this enzyme, the medication lowers the levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) — commonly known as “bad” cholesterol — and triglycerides, while modestly increasing high-density lipoprotein (HDL) or “good” cholesterol. This helps prevent the hardening and narrowing of arteries (atherosclerosis), reducing the risk of life-threatening conditions like heart attack and stroke. Avas 5 also improves blood flow and supports overall cardiovascular health.
