ATOVASTRIN CV 10 Mg

Atorvastatin (10mg), Clopidogrel (75mg)

ATOVASTRIN CV 10 mg is a combination medication containing Atorvastatin (10mg) and Clopidogrel (75mg). This powerful duo is designed to manage cholesterol levels and prevent blood clots, making it a vital tool in cardiovascular health.

Uses

1. Cholesterol Management:

• Atorvastatin: A statin that lowers levels of bad cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides in the blood while increasing good cholesterol (HDL).
• Clopidogrel: An antiplatelet medication that prevents platelets in your blood from sticking together to form clots. This reduces the risk of heart attack and stroke, especially in individuals with a history of cardiovascular conditions.

2. Cardiovascular Disease Prevention:

• Primary Prevention: For patients without a history of heart disease but with risk factors such as diabetes, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol.
• Secondary Prevention: For patients with a history of heart attacks, strokes, or other cardiovascular conditions, to prevent recurrence.

Dosage

1. General Dosage:

• The typical dosage of ATOVASTRIN CV 10 mg is one tablet daily. It should be taken at the same time each day to maintain an even level of the medication in your blood.

2. Administration:

• Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water.
• Can be taken with or without food.
• Avoid grapefruit juice as it can increase the levels of Atorvastatin in your bloodstream, leading to potential side effects.

3. Missed Dose:

• If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. If it's almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular schedule. Do not double up to make up for a missed dose.

Side Effects

1. Common Side Effects:

• Atorvastatin: Muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness; diarrhea; and upset stomach.
• Clopidogrel: Easy bruising, minor bleeding (such as nosebleeds or bleeding gums), and stomach upset.

2. Serious Side Effects:

2. Drug Interactions:

• ATOVASTRIN CV 10 mg can interact with other medications, including certain antibiotics, antifungals, other cholesterol-lowering drugs, and blood thinners. 

3. Alcohol Consumption:
