Ecosprin AV 150 capsule is a combination medication containing aspirin (150 mg) and atorvastatin (10 mg), primarily used to prevent heart attack and stroke by lowering “bad” cholesterol and preventing blood clots.
Key Details
- Active Ingredients: Each capsule contains Atorvastatin 10mg and Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic Acid) 150mg.
- Mechanism of Action: Atorvastatin is a lipid-lowering agent (statin) that reduces the production of “bad” cholesterol (LDL) and triglycerides in the liver, while raising “good” cholesterol (HDL) levels. Aspirin is an anti-platelet agent (blood thinner) that prevents the formation and growth of blood clots in the blood vessels.
- Uses: It is prescribed for patients at high risk of cardiovascular events, including those with established coronary artery disease, peripheral arterial disease, or type 2 diabetes and dyslipidemia. It is also used after certain cardiac surgeries like angioplasty or bypass surgery.
