About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Mactor 10 Tablet contains Atorvastatin 10mg, a lipid-lowering agent belonging to the statin class of medications. It is primarily indicated for the management of hypercholesterolemia and mixed dyslipidemia, effectively reducing elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), total cholesterol, and triglycerides, while modestly increasing high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). Atorvastatin exerts its therapeutic effect by inhibiting HMG-CoA reductase, the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis, leading to decreased cholesterol production in the liver and increased clearance of LDL particles from the bloodstream. Mactor 10 is prescribed to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events such as myocardial infarction, stroke, and the need for revascularization procedures in patients with established coronary heart disease or those at high risk due to multiple risk factors. It is also used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan including diet, exercise, and weight control. The tablet is typically administered once daily, with or without food, and dosage adjustments are based on therapeutic response and tolerability. Patients should be monitored for potential adverse effects including hepatic enzyme elevations and myopathy. Regular liver function tests and creatine kinase levels are recommended during therapy to ensure safety.
