ACURVASTIN 20 Tablets contain Atorvastatin in a higher strength, used in the management of hyperlipidemia and prevention of cardiovascular diseases. It works by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, thereby reducing cholesterol synthesis in the liver. This leads to a significant reduction in LDL cholesterol and triglycerides while increasing HDL levels, helping to lower the risk of heart attack and stroke, especially in high-risk patients.
