Strength:

Mantorva 20 MG Tablet 10 is used to lower high cholesterol and triglyceride levels in the blood. It contains Atorvastatin, an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor that reduces the production of cholesterol in the liver. This helps prevent heart disease, heart attack, and stroke.

This medication also helps in reducing low-density lipoprotein (LDL) or "bad" cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood. It is also beneficial for lowering the risk of heart attack, stroke, angina, and revascularisation procedures in patients with multiple risk factors for coronary heart disease.

To ensure optimal results with this medicine, take it orally as directed by your doctor. Be sure to inform your doctor about any pre-existing conditions or ongoing medications before beginning this medicine. If you notice any side effects while on this medication, notify your doctor promptly. Continue taking the medicine for the full duration prescribed by your doctor.

Mantorva 20 MG Tablet 10 is used to treat high cholesterol (hyperlipidemia). It lowers "bad" LDL and triglycerides and raises "good" HDL cholesterol. Reducing cholesterol helps prevent heart attacks, strokes, and slows artery blockages. Usually taken once daily, with or without food, and requires regular lipid profile monitoring.

To use Mantorva 20 MG Tablet 10 correctly:

Swallow the medicine whole with water.
Do not crush or chew the tablet.
Ensure you do not exceed the dose recommended by your doctor.
If you feel better, do not stop taking this medicine without consulting your doctor.

Mantorva 20 MG Tablet 10 contains atorvastatin (20 mg), which influences the body as follows:

HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibition: Atorvastatin functions by blocking an enzyme called HMG-CoA reductase, which is essential for creating cholesterol within your body.
Decreases LDL Cholesterol Levels: By inhibiting the activity of HMG-CoA reductase, atorvastatin effectively diminishes the levels of LDL cholesterol in your blood.
Increases HDL Cholesterol Levels: Atorvastatin can also help enhance levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, often referred to as "good" cholesterol.
