CompositionAmator 40 Mg Tablet 10 is used to lower high cholesterol levels, including in people with familial hypercholesterolaemia, and to reduce the risk of heart attacks, strokes and other cardiovascular events.
It contains atorvastatin, a statin that reduces cholesterol production in the liver, lowering LDL (bad cholesterol) and triglycerides while raising HDL (good cholesterol). Take it as prescribed, and continue even if you feel well, as high cholesterol usually has no symptoms.
Following a low-saturated-fat, low-cholesterol diet, staying physically active and maintaining a healthy weight support this medicine's cholesterol-lowering effect.
Tell your doctor about any liver disease, muscle disorders or heavy alcohol use before starting, and if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Report unexplained muscle pain, tenderness or weakness, or dark urine.
