Tovast 40 mg F/C Tabs 30'S
Atorvastatin
Tovast tablets contain Atorvastatin which helps reduce cholesterol levels in the blood.
It works by slowing the production of cholesterol in the body to decrease the amount of cholesterol that may build up on the walls of the arteries.
Cholesterol build-up in the arteries leads to blocking blood flow to the heart, brain, and other parts of the body.
Tovast is used together with diet to lower blood levels of "bad" cholesterol (low-density lipoprotein, or LDL), increase levels of "good" cholesterol (high-density lipoprotein, or HDL), and lower triglycerides (a type of fat in the blood).
