CompositionModlip 20 Tablet is used to lower high blood cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke in adults. It helps decrease harmful fatty substances such as low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and triglycerides while raising high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol.
It contains atorvastatin, which belongs to a group of medicines known as statins. Take it orally as prescribed, with or without food, ideally at the same time every day. It is essential to keep taking this medicine continuously even if you feel healthy, as high cholesterol usually causes no noticeable symptoms. Stopping treatment may cause your cholesterol levels to rise again.
Adopting healthy lifestyle habits complements this treatment effectively. Eat a diet low in saturated fats and cholesterol, exercise regularly, maintain an ideal body weight, limit alcohol consumption, and avoid smoking.
Before starting treatment, tell your doctor if you have any history of liver or kidney disease, or if you consume large amounts of alcohol. Inform your doctor right away if you experience unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, weakness, or yellowing of your skin or eyes. It should not be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
