Aztor 20mg Tablet is a medicine containing Atorvastatin 20mg, used to help lower high blood cholesterol levels (hyperlipidaemia) when diet and lifestyle changes alone are not enough. By effectively reducing "bad" cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides in the body, Aztor 20mg Tablet helps manage the risk of serious conditions like heart attack, stroke, or angina. It works by blocking an enzyme in the body responsible for making cholesterol.

For best results with Aztor 20mg Tablet, it's important to continue a cholesterol-lowering diet, maintain a healthy lifestyle, and engage in regular physical activity as advised by your doctor. Avoid consuming alcohol and grapefruit juice while taking Aztor 20mg Tablet, as they can affect its effectiveness. Before starting Aztor 20mg Tablet, tell your doctor if you have any existing lung, liver, kidney, or heart conditions. It's also important to inform them if you have diabetes, thyroid problems, or a family history of muscle disorders. Discuss with your doctor if you are currently taking any other medications, especially antibiotics like fusidic acid. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should not take Aztor 20mg Tablet without consulting their doctor.

While taking Aztor 20mg Tablet, your doctor may monitor your blood sugar levels and liver function, as it can sometimes increase blood sugar, particularly in diabetic patients, and may affect liver health. Common side effects of Aztor 20mg Tablet include nasal passage inflammation, throat pain, muscle ache, joint pain, back pain, constipation, nausea, and headache. If any of these side effects worsen, consult your doctor. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe, unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness accompanied by fever while taking Aztor 20mg Tablet, as this could indicate a serious condition.

  1. To reduce high blood cholesterol levels (hyperlipidaemia).
  2. To manage and lower the risk of cardiovascular events such as heart attack, stroke, and angina, especially in patients with elevated cholesterol.
