Overview Cholatin 20mg Tablet

Lipitor 20mg tablets are statin medications prescribed to lower cholesterol and mitigate the risk of cardiovascular complications. High cholesterol, a fatty substance accumulating in blood vessels, causes narrowing that can result in heart attacks or strokes. Widely used and generally considered safe for long-term use under medical supervision, Lipitor 20mg can be ingested with or without food at any time of day, but consistency is advised. While high cholesterol often presents no symptoms, discontinuing treatment elevates cholesterol levels, increasing heart disease and stroke risk. Regular cholesterol monitoring is crucial. This medication is part of a comprehensive treatment plan encompassing a balanced diet, regular physical activity, smoking cessation, moderate alcohol consumption, and weight management. Maintain a normal diet, minimizing high-fat foods. Common, typically mild and transient, side effects include constipation, gas, indigestion, and abdominal discomfort. Persistent symptoms, jaundice, or recurring muscle pain warrant immediate medical attention. Contraindicated in liver disease, pregnancy, and breastfeeding due to potential fetal harm, this medicine may elevate blood sugar in diabetics, requiring close glucose monitoring. Liver function tests are typically conducted before and during treatment.
