 How It Works

• This combination protects the heart in two ways: by lowering cholesterol and stopping platelets from sticking together:
• Atorvastatin (10 mg) is a statin (HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor) that lowers cholesterol synthesis in the liver. It decreases LDL (the "bad" cholesterol) and triglycerides, and raises HDL (the "good" cholesterol). This stops plaque from building up in arteries.
• Aspirin (75 mg) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medication (NSAID) that also stops platelets from sticking together. It stops platelets from sticking together, which lowers the chance of blood clots that might cause a heart attack or stroke.
• They work together to protect the heart and blood vessels in every way possible, stopping both cholesterol buildup and clotting.

Medicine Interaction

• Don't use or be careful with the following:
• Other blood thinners, like warfarin, heparin, and clopidogrel, may make bleeding more likely.
• NSAIDs like ibuprofen and naproxen raise the risk of bleeding in the stomach.
• Antibiotics like Clarithromycin and Erythromycin make Atorvastatin more dangerous.
• Antifungals like Itraconazole and Ketoconazole make Atorvastatin levels go up.
• Antacids (Al/Mg hydroxide): Lower the amount of Atorvastatin that your body absorbs (take them 2 hours apart).
• Alcohol: Increases the chance of bleeding and liver damage.
• Diabetes medications: Keep a close eye on your blood sugar levels because statins may have a small effect on how well your body controls glucose.
• Use ACE inhibitors or ARBs with caution since aspirin may make them less effective.
• Before starting this combination, be sure to tell your doctor about all the drugs and supplements you are taking.

 How to Use

• Take one pill every day, with or without meals, and preferably in the evening or as your doctor tells you to.
• Do not crush or chew the tablet; just swallow it whole with a glass of water.
• For optimal effects, try to take it at the same time every day.
• Take it as soon as you remember if you forget a dosage. If it's close to your next dose, skip it.
• Keep taking the medicine even if you feel better; it takes a long time for it to protect your heart.
