About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Liponorm 20mg Tablet contains Atorvastatin, a potent HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor used primarily for the management of hypercholesterolemia and prevention of cardiovascular disease. Atorvastatin works by inhibiting the enzyme responsible for cholesterol synthesis in the liver, thereby reducing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and total cholesterol levels while modestly increasing high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). Liponorm 20mg is indicated for patients with primary hyperlipidemia, mixed dyslipidemia, and familial hypercholesterolemia, as well as for the prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in individuals at high risk. The tablet is typically administered once daily, with or without food, and dosage adjustments are based on therapeutic response and patient tolerance. Common adverse effects may include headache, myalgia, gastrointestinal disturbances, and elevated liver enzymes; therefore, regular monitoring of liver function and lipid profiles is recommended during therapy. Caution is advised in patients with hepatic impairment, renal dysfunction, or those taking concomitant medications that may increase the risk of myopathy. Liponorm 20mg should be used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan including lifestyle modifications such as diet, exercise, and weight control to optimize cardiovascular outcomes.
