Atorvastatin 10 mg+ Fenofibrate 160 mg IP Tabs- GA
₹143.22
Atorvastatin 10 mg + Fenofibrate 160 mg is a prescription combination medication used to manage high cholesterol and triglyceride levels (dyslipidemia) when lifestyle changes alone are insufficient. It helps to lower the risk of heart disease, heart attacks, and strokes.
Key Information
- Uses: The medication helps lower “bad” cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides while increasing “good” cholesterol (HDL) in the blood. It is particularly effective for mixed dyslipidemia and in patients with type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndrome who have multiple cardiovascular risk factors.
- Mechanism: Atorvastatin is a statin that blocks the enzyme responsible for producing cholesterol in the liver. Fenofibrate is a fibrate that helps break down fats (triglycerides) in the bloodstream.
- Administration: The tablet should be swallowed whole with water and should not be crushed or chewed. It can be taken with or after food, and it’s best to take it at the same time each day for consistency.
- Prescription: This is a prescription-only medication and should be used under the guidance and regular monitoring of a healthcare professional.
Important Safety Information & Warnings
- Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: The medication is considered unsafe during pregnancy and breastfeeding and should be avoided. Effective birth control methods should be used while taking this medicine and for at least one month after stopping it.
- Liver and Kidney Issues: It should be used with caution in patients with kidney problems and is generally avoided in those with active liver disease. Your doctor may order periodic liver function tests.
- Muscle Pain: A rare but serious side effect can be muscle damage (myopathy or rhabdomyolysis). Notify your doctor immediately if you experience unexplained muscle pain, tenderness, or weakness, especially if it is accompanied by a fever.
- Alcohol and Food Interactions:
- Avoid excessive alcohol consumption, as it can increase the risk of liver damage and raise triglyceride levels.
- Avoid consuming large amounts of grapefruit juice (more than a liter a day), as it can increase the levels of atorvastatin in the blood and the risk of side effects.
Common Side Effects
Common side effects of this combination medication may include:
- Nausea and stomach pain
- Constipation or diarrhea
- Headache and dizziness
- Muscle or back pain
- Increased liver enzymes or blood glucose levels
It is important not to stop taking the medication without consulting your doctor, even if you feel well, as stopping it may cause your cholesterol levels to rise and increase your risk of heart problems.
