Teva Atorvastatin 40mg (Lipitor)

Description

Teva Atorvastatin 40mg, commonly known by its brand name Lipitor, is a widely prescribed statin medication used to manage high cholesterol and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as heart attacks and strokes. Manufactured by Teva Pharmaceuticals, this generic version of atorvastatin delivers the same high-quality, clinically proven results as its brand-name counterpart but at a more affordable price.

Atorvastatin belongs to the drug class known as HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors, or statins. It works by blocking the enzyme in the liver responsible for producing cholesterol. By lowering the production of cholesterol and increasing the liver’s ability to remove LDL (low-density lipoprotein or “bad” cholesterol) from the blood, atorvastatin helps to reduce plaque buildup in the arteries, leading to improved blood flow and reduced risk of cardiovascular events.
