Faq For Medicine

It is used to lower cholesterol, prevent heart attacks, and prevent strokes.

Q2. When is the best time to swallow the capsule?

At night, after eating, or as instructed would be best.

Q3. Is it okay for me to drink?

Stay away from alcohol because it can make stomach bleeding (with aspirin) and liver damage (with statin) more likely.

Q4. Do I need to get my blood tested often?

Yes. Rarely, statins can hurt muscles. Tell your doctor right away.
