• Cholesterol Management: Helps lower bad cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides, raise good cholesterol (HDL) and prevent blood clots.

To use Coltro AS 75 Capsule correctly, follow these steps:

• Swallow the capsule whole with a full glass of water.

• For specific advice on how to take this medicine, always consult your doctor.

Coltro AS 75 Capsule is taken orally.

Coltro AS 75 Capsule contains two active ingredients:

• Aspirin (75 mg): At this low dose, aspirin works as an antiplatelet agent. It inhibits a substance called cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1), which reduces the production of thromboxane A2, a substance that can make your blood clot more easily. By reducing thromboxane A2, aspirin helps prevent blood clots and reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes.
• Rosuvastatin (10 mg): This is a type of statin and it works by blocking an enzyme called HMG-CoA reductase in your body. This enzyme is important for making cholesterol in your body. By blocking it, rosuvastatin reduces levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) or "bad" cholesterol and fats like triglycerides while increasing high-density lipoprotein (HDL) or "good" cholesterol.

• Store Coltro AS 75 Capsule in a tight, light-resistant container to protect it from light exposure.
• Keep the capsule at room temperature, ideally between 15-30°C.
• Avoid storing in areas with high moisture, such as the bathroom or kitchen.
• Always keep this medicine out of children's reach.
• Use the capsule before its expiry date for optimal efficacy.

• Since Coltro AS 75 Capsule helps manage high cholesterol, consider adopting a diet low in saturated and trans fats. This could include eating lean meats, whole grains, and plenty of fruits and vegetables.
• Regular exercise is important for cardiovascular health. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic activity every week, like brisk walking or cycling. Always consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regime.
